For the purposes of at the same time functioning web service supporting particular thermodynamic calculations as well as actions related to acquisition, check, repair eventually updating of web service’s data bases we have designed conception of administration and structure of two collaborative databases – preparatory and operating. The paper deals with principles this admi nistration and specifies structure of both databases. The data structure of substance and related entities is the same in the both databas...

Main goal of our research is to find some way how to help colour blind people to distinct the entities with differe nt colours. So far it is impo ssible to develop some kind of device or computer algorithm to let the colour blind man see in the same way as healthy man. So, we try to transform pictures (both static pictures and dynamic pictures from computer camera) to let the person with diagnosed colour deficiency see there as many details as possible. Algorithm that we have researched deals with transformation o...

In this paper we deal with analysis and evaluation of objects of interest which are present in ultrasound images as well as assessment of the progress or regressions that occurred in these objects. These objects ar e highly significant from a medicinal perspective and include atherosclerostic pl aque in carotid arte ries, the intima-media thickness in the distal part of the common carotid artery, cerebral cortex size and brain stem findings in cases of Parkinson disease. Here, we describe procedures employing comb...

The contribution deals with heating proc ess modelling and using service oriented architecture in process modellin g in Matlab client envir onment. Granular material heating with combustion gas is typical process in area of raw material processing. Paper briefly characterizes and describes model of heating process with its particularly models of heat accumulation and convec tive heat transfer from the modelling point of view. In the next part of contribution is characte rized basic service oriented architecture pr...

The FOTOM system developed at the Department of Computer Science FEECS VЕ B TU Ostrava is used for digital image processing. FOTOM 2008 was created in the programming language C++. In 2009, a new, revolutionary version of the system, FOTOM 2009, was designed. This new system has new kernel and provides a more universal and easily extensible architect ure with newly solved calibration and transformation images. Mine image transf ormations consist of conversion data from snapshots to the three - dimensional coordina...

Conception of information society can be viewed as using of information and communication Technologies that are sign ificant phenomenon of present economy, since they remove geographical boundaries and they support process of economy globalization and international cooperation. Most mature countries are striving deliberately to use advantages of info rmation and communication Technologies for acceleration of development of society, ec onomy and quality of the inhabitants live. Government of Slovak republic declare...

Information is critical to the operation of organization. Protecting information assets is a matter of giving confidence to any interested parties. Small enterprises have no free resources to protect information assets. They choose the network provider depending on location of enterprise. Security of their web site and e-mail communication is depending on web hosting security. This contribution deals with information assets, security threats and real risks for assets at small enterprise s. Common of security gaps ...

Informatisation, internationalization an d globalization have dramatically changed retail sector; speeding up the retail processes, creating new sale formats, fastening the increase of income etc. During the last decade, logis tics influenced the development of retailing by cutting down costs and increasing the service quality level. The main purpose of this paper is to give a comprehensive review of affected logistics and directly caused changes in Western Balkan retailing and global market as well. Among the giv...

The article deals with the de termination of the basic inte gral characteristics of the objects as are the volume, mass, centre of gr avity and the moment of inertia. The article mentions the problems, which originate at the calculation of these characteristics for the parts with difficult shapes. The utilization of CAD/CAM is one of the possibilities which can be used at the solution of this problem. The specification of these characteristics is necessary at the sugges tion or dimensioning of machine parts and al...

The paper presents the factors affecting the performance of a mining company, identified and classified into two categories: internal and external factors. Further, the paper evaluates the external factors affecting the activity of a mining company, and identifies possible correlations between factors or group of factors and the performance indicators of the mining co mpany. These correlations are validated in time by the evolution of the pair: external f actor – indicator value, or are object of simulations –...

One of the most characteristic features of the processes in the area of mining and processing of earth resources is their comple xity. The modern methods of investigation, monitoring and control of these processes utilize approaches ba sed upon modeling of the processes. In this paper we will focu s only on the dynamical processes, where the mathematical models are diffe rential equations. As it results from the last research works, majority of the real objects in ge neral are fractional-order systems. Fractional-...

The NELA system was created in coope ration with the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science of VЕ B-Technical University of Ostrava and the Neurocognitive Laboratory of the Univers ity Hospital Ostrava for the purpose of neurocognitive rehabilitation of patients who, owing to the system, can carry out practice tests comfortably from their homes and thus contribute to their quicker recovery. The fundamental bases of neuroc ognitive rehabilitation rely on the so-called brain plasticity, i.e. the abil...

Tourism is the e-specific industry in view of how to use ICT. Tourism enterprises used ICT to communicate buying and selling serv ices and products in this sector. Popularization of the social networks create s from them a modern tool for marketing purposes. Contribution analyses and offers an overview of tools and platforms to promote the appropriate destination. Describes the life cycle of the experimental site intended to promote the destination Pieniny created within the social network facebook.

The current paper marks the early stage of the PhD thesis of the first author of the paper. The thesis includes partial creation of an educational repository system, which should become a highly flexible portal that gives a ccess to variety of educational resources. The simulation of the development of the repos itory system is the main topic of this paper. The human resources needed for the su ccessful end of the project are centric for the simulation which can be quite useful not only for developers of similar s...

This bachelor thesis is focused on speech synthesis of Czech language in frequency domain. The resulting software solution consis ts of the analyzer and synthesizer of selected elementary speech units. Speech synthesis is based on the LPC model. The analyzer analyzes an input phoneme unit in WAV format, divides it into microsegmens of length 20 ms and keeps the LPC coefficients, flag (voiced / unvoiced) and the residual prediction error signal. These data are then stored in the XML file. Further, this thesis deals...
