Analytical Research and Conservation Project Proposals: English Water Jug and Bowl from Etnographic Museum Rupe
No full textU diplomskom radu obrađuju se dva zanimljiva predmeta: vrč i zdjela za umivanje engleske
provenijencije u vlasništvu Etnografskog muzeja „Rupe” iz sastavnice Dubrovačkih muzeja.
Diplomski rad fokusira se ponajprije na analitička istraživanja provedena metodom CT-a, a
potom i na prijedlog konzervatorsko-restauratorskih radova koji je dat na temelju dobivenih
rezultata istraživanja. Inicijalno istraživanje predmeta (na čijim rezultatima se temelji prijedlog konzervatorskorestauratorskih
radova), kao primarna no i krucijalna osnova pri radu konzervatorarestauratora,
zahtjeva detaljna istraživanja i analize kako bi se pronašla nit vodilja za
predložene metode i materijale koji će se primijeniti pri praktičnome radu na predmetima.
Kako bi se pobliže upoznali s predmetima, potrebno je istražiti vrstu dekora i materijal od
kojih su predmeti izrađeni, uključujući i njihovo izvorno porijeklo. Detaljno su prikazana
oštećenja predmeta i uzroci propadanja. Već pri prvom vizualnom kontaktu s oba predmeta,
ističu se povijesne restauracije (pretpostavlja se iz 19 st.) koje u obliku spojnica svjedoče
povijesnim mijenama u značenju i kontekstu predmeta. Na starim obnovama provedene su
potrebne analize kako bi se ispitala njihova stabilnost i sastav materijala. Pripremljeno je
prikladno pakiranje, s kemijski inertnim materijalima, u kojima se predmeti mogu
dugotrajno pohraniti te izrađen prijedlog konzervatorsko- restauratorskih radova uključujući
smjernice za rukovanje, pravilnu pohranu, transport i izlaganje predmeta.The thesis deals with two interesting objects: a water jug and a washing bowl of English
provenance owned by the Ethnographic Museum "Rupe" from the Dubrovnik Museums.
The master thesis focuses primarily on the analytical research carried out using the CT
method, and then on the proposal for conservation and restoration works, which was given
on the basis of the obtained research results.
The initial research of the subject (on the results of which the proposal for conservationrestoration
works is based), as the primary but also crucial basis for the work of the
conservator-restorer, requires detailed research and analysis in order to find the guiding
thread for the proposed methods and materials that will be applied in practical work on
subjects. In order to get to know the objects more closely, it is necessary to research the type
of decor and the material from which the objects are made, including their original origin.
The damage to the objects and the causes of deterioration are shown in detail. At the first
visual contact with both objects, historical restorations (presumably from the 19th century)
stand out, which in the form of dowels testify to historical changes in the meaning and
context of the objects. The necessary analyzes were carried out on the old restorations in
order to examine their stability and material composition. Suitable packaging (with
chemically inert materials) was prepared in which the objects can be stored for a long time,
and a proposal for conservation-restoration works was prepared, including guidelines for
handling, proper storage, transport and display of the objects
The role of cloud computing in the Internet of things
No full textOblak je ogromna, međusobno povezana mreža moćnih poslužitelja koji pružaju usluge tvrtkama i pojedincima. Internet stvari (IoT) je sustav međusobno povezanih računalnih uređaja, mehaničkih i digitalnih strojeva, objekata, životinja ili ljudi koji imaju jedinstvene identifikatore i mogućnost prijenosa podataka preko mreže, bez potrebe za komunikacijom između ljudi ili interakcijom s računalom. IoT se razvio s povećanjem količine podataka. "Internet of things cloud service" stvara pretjeranu komunikaciju između jeftinih senzora u IoT-u, što znači još veću povezanost. Milijarde povezanih uređaja i strojeva uskoro će se pridružiti korisnicima. IoT generira puno podataka dok, s druge strane, računarstvo u oblaku utire put tim podacima za putovanje. U ovom radu pokušavamo se usredotočiti na pružatelje usluga u oblaku koji to iskorištavaju kako bi osigurali model plaćanja prema korištenju, u kojem korisnici plaćaju za određene korištene resurse. Također, hosting u oblaku kao usluga dodaje vrijednost IoT startup tvrtkama, pružajući ekonomiju razmjera kako bi se smanjila njihova ukupna struktura troškova.The cloud is a huge, interconnected network of powerful servers that performs services for businesses and people. The Internet of Things (IoT) is a system of interrelated computing devices, mechanical and digital machines, objects, animals or people that are provided with unique identifiers and the ability to transfer data over a network without requiring human-to-human or human-to-computer interaction. IoT has evolved with the greater generation of data. Internet of Things Cloud Service creates excessive communication between inexpensive sensors in the IoT which means even greater connectivity. Billions of connected devices and machines will soon join human-users. IoT generates lots of data while on the other hand, cloud computing paves way for this data to travel. In this paper we try to focus on cloud providers who take advantage of this to provide a pay-as-you-use model where customers pay for the specific resources used. Also, cloud hosting as a service adds value to IoT startups by providing economies of scale to reduce their overall cost structure

Construction of fundamental infrastructure facilities in Dubrovnik in the late middle ages
No full textOvaj rad proučava kasnosrednjovjekovni Dubrovnik, istražujući njegov gospodarski i urbanistički razvitak tijekom 14. i 15. stoljeća. Kroz analizu ključnih infrastrukturnih projekata, zakonodavnih regulativa i strateškog planiranja, teži se sagledati način na koji se Dubrovnik razvijao, prilagođavao i napredovao unatoč složenim geopolitičkim i gospodarskim okolnostima. Analizirajući utjecaj Statuta na urbanistički razvoj, ovaj rad naglašava kako su odredbe pete knjige Statuta vrlo precizno kreirale jedinstvene gradske slike i omogućile izgradnju održive infrastrukture. Pravila iz statuta prikazuju kako su se Dubrovčani bavili planiranjem i uređenjem grada, promišljajući svaki aspekt njegove izgradnje i razvoja. Izgradnja impresivnog vodovodnog i kanalizacijskog sustava svjedoči o naprednoj tehničkoj stručnosti i inovativnosti srednjovjekovnih Dubrovčana. Kroz proces dogradnje zidina i izgradnje tvrđava, Dubrovnik je utvrdio svoju obrambenu strukturu koja je bila ključna za zaštitu grada i održavanje neovisnosti. Sveobuhvatnim proučavanjem tehničkih, zakonodavnih i strateških elemenata koji su oblikovali grad, rad stavlja naglasak na povijesni kontinuitet i izdržljivost dubrovačke arhitekture, urbanizma i gospodarskih struktura, ističući kako su oni, unatoč promjenama kroz stoljeća, očuvali svoju osnovnu funkciju.This paper examines the late medieval Dubrovnik, exploring its economic and urban development during the 14th, 15th, and 16th century. Through the analysis of key infrastructure projects, legislative regulations, and strategic planning, the aim is to understand how Dubrovnik evolved, adapted, and progressed despite complex geopolitical and economic circumstances. By analyzing the impact of statutes on urban development, this paper highlights how the regulations of the fifth book of Statutes played a crucial role in creating a unique cityscape and enabling the development of sustainable infrastructure. The laws from the statutes show how the people of Dubrovnik engaged in city planning and organization, considering every aspect of its construction and development. The construction of an impressive water supply and sewage system attests to the technical expertise and innovation of the people of Dubrovnik. Through the process of expanding medieval walls and building fortresses, Dubrovnik established its defensive structure that was crucial for protecting the city and maintaining independence. By comprehensively studying the technical, legislative, and strategic elements that shaped the city, the paper emphasizes historical continuity and the resilience of Dubrovnik's architecture, urban planning, and economic structures, highlighting how they have preserved their fundamental function despite changes over the centuries

"Managment and traffic in Polish Baltic container ports and terminals."
No full textOvaj rad bavi se tematikom upravljanja i prometa poljskih baltičkih kontejnerskih luka i terminala. Naime, kontejnerizacija je proces započet nakon Drugog svjetskog rata gdje se pomorske luke prilagođavaju rukovanju kontejnerskog tereta što je omogućilo efikasnije lučko poslovanje. U pogledu europskog lučkog sustava kontejnerski promet doživio je veliki rast u zadnjih dva desetljeća. Promet kontejnera odvija se kroz više lučkih regija koje su povezane sa svojim zaleđima. Doprema i otprema vrši se feeder brodskim morem, rijekama, željeznicama i cestama. Poljska zbog svoje geostrateške pozicioniranosti unutar Europske istočne ravnice predstavlja vrata u svijet neobalnih država srednje Europe. Jedan od ključnih čimbenika poljskog ekonomskog uzleta je ulaganje u pomorske luke među kojima su četiri namjenjene kontejnerskim teretima, a od kojih su Gdanjsk i Gdynia najveće baltičke luke. Poljska je razvila široku mrežu unutrašnjih kontejnerskih terminala, prometnih čvorišta i dobre trgovinske odnose sa susjedstvom i Dalekim istokom što joj omogućuje daljnji rast. Osim navedenog postoje negativni utjecaji na Poljsku počevši od NSR inicijative i utjecaji poput: Covid-19, razvoja potencijala sjevernog Jadrana i utjecaja rata u Ukrajini. Obuhvaćajući sve navedeno može se reći da Poljska ima izniman potencijal, no moguća kočnica njenog napretka je upravo socioekonomska nestabilnost susjednih država (zaleđa), dok prometna povezanost s istima treba imati bolja rješenja trenutno predstavlja učinkovito poslovanje luka sa zaleđima i obratno.This thesis deals with the management and traffic of Polish Baltic container ports and terminals. Namely, containerization is a process started after the Second World War where seaports adapt to the handling of container cargo, which enabled more efficient port operations. In terms of the European port system, container traffic has experienced great growth in the last two decades. Container traffic takes place through several port regions that are connected to their hinterlands. Delivery and shipping is done by feeder ships by sea, rivers, railways and roads. Due to its geostrategic positioning within the European Eastern Plain, Poland represents the gateway to the world of non-coastal states of Central Europe. One of the key factors in Poland's economic upswing is investment in seaports, four of which are intended for container cargo, of which Gdansk and Gdynia are the largest Baltic ports. Poland has developed a wide network of inland container terminals, transport hubs and good trade relations with its neighbors and the Far East, which allows it to grow further. In addition to the above, there are also negative influences on Poland, starting with the NSR initiative and influences such as: Covid-19, the development of the potential of the northern Adriatic and the impact of the war in Ukraine. Taking all of the above into account, it can be said that Poland has exceptional potential, but a possible brake on its progress is precisely the socioeconomic instability of neighboring countries (the hinterland), while the transport connection with them needs to have better solutions

godine u Kini. Jedan je od vrlo zabrinjavajućih globalnih događaja u svijetu, okarakteriziran
prema Svjetskoj zdravstvenoj organizaciji kao pandemija.
Cilj istraživanja je prikazati broj umrlih od COVID-19 u Općoj bolnici Dubrovnik u periodu od
dvije godine i to od početka travnja 2020. godine, kada je zabilježen prvi smrtni slučaj od
COVID-19 u OB Dubrovnik, zaključno s travnjem 2022. godine.
U promatranom razdoblju je umrlo 329 osoba, od toga 209 (63.5%) muškaraca i 120 (36.5%)
žena. Umrli su podijeljeni u tri dobne skupine. U dobi od 18 do 39 godina umrle su 2 osobe
(0.6%), u dobi od 40 do 64 godine umrlo je 36 osoba (10.94%), dok je u dobi preko 65 godina
umrla 291 osoba (88.44%). Umrli koji zahvaćaju kategoriju starijih od 65 godina podijeljeni su u
tri potkategorije. U dobi između 65 i 74 godine umrlo je 80 ljudi (24.31%), u dobi između 75 i 84
godine umrlo je 113 osoba (34.34%), a u dobi preko 85 godina umrlo je 98 osoba (29.78%).
Dvadeset sedam umrlih osoba (8.2%) nije imalo nikakve komorbiditete. 74 umrle osobe
(22.49%) imale su jedan komorbiditet, dok je 228 osoba (69.3%) umrlo s više komorbiditeta.
Popratne srčane bolesti su nađene kod 135 (41.03%), bolesti pluća kod 52 (15.80%), jetrene
bolesti kod 14 (4.25%), bolesti bubrega kod 25 (7.59%), a bolesti središnjeg živčanog sustava
kod 67 umrlih osoba (20.36%). Povišen krvni tlak je imalo 209 umrlih osoba (63.52%). Sa
dijabetesom je umrlo 105 (31.91%) osoba. Stanje nakon transplantacije organa je nađeno kod 5
(1.51%) umrlih osoba. Značajna debljina je bila komorbiditet kod 17 umrlih (5.16%). Dvadeset
šest (7.90%) umrlih osoba su bili onkološki bolesnici. U skupini s ostalim komorbiditetima je
umrlo 19 osoba (5.77%). U promatranom dvogodišnjem periodu 59 osoba se cijepilo (17.93%),
266 osoba nije bilo cijepljeno (80.85%) dok za 4 umrle osobe (1.21%) cijepni status nije bio
poznat. Iz provedenog istraživanja može se zaključiti kako je najviše umrlih bilo muškog spola,
starije dobne skupine s više od jednog komorbiditeta te kako velika većina umrlih osoba nije bila
cijepljena.COVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus that appeared in China at
the end of 2019. It is one of the most intimidating global events in the world, characterized as a
pandemic, by the World Health Organization.
The aim of the research is to show the number of deaths caused by COVID-19 in Dubrovnik
General Hospital over a period of two years, from the beginning of April 2020, when the first
death caused by COVID-19 was registered in Dubrovnik General Hospital, to the end of April
2022.
In the observed period, 329 persons died, 209 (63.5%) of them were men and 120 (36.5%) were
women. Deceased were divided into three age ranges. In the range from 18 to 39, 2 persons died
(0.6%), in the range from 40 to 64, 36 persons died (10.94%), while in the age range over 65, 291
persons died (88.44 %).
Deaths of persons who were older than 65 years old, were divided into three subcategories. In the
range between 65 and 74, 80 persons died (24.31%). In the range between 75 and 84, 113 persons
died (34.34%), and in the range over the age of 85, 98 persons died (29.78%). 27 persons (8.2%)
who died didn't have any comorbidities. 74 persons (22.49%) who died from COVID-19 had one
comorbidity, while 228 of them (69.3%) died with multiple comorbidities. 135 (41.03%) persons
who died already had some kind of heart disease, 52 (15.80%) of the deceased had lung diseases,
14 (4.25%) of the deceased had liver disease, 25 (7.59%) of them had kidney diseases and 67
(20.36%) of the deceased had central nervous system diseases. 209 (63.52%) persons had high
blood pressure. 105 (31.91%) of the persons who died from COVID-19 had diabetes. In 5 of
them (1.51%) was found the post-transplant condition. Comorbidity in 17 (5.16%) of the persons
who died was significant obesity. 26 (7.90%) of the deceased persons were cancer patients. 19
(5.77%) persons died with some other comorbidities. In the observed two-year period, 59
(17.93%) persons were vaccinated, 266 (80.85%) persons were not, while the vaccination status
of 4 (1.21%) persons is unknown. From this study, it can be concluded that most of the deceased
were elderly men, with more than one comorbidity. Also, the majority of the deceased were not
vaccinated

Management of Small and Medium-sized Hotel Enterprises
No full textMenadžment u hotelijerstvu se može definirati kao sustav koji stvara, usmjerava i usklađuje sve činitelje koji utječu na oblikovanje hotelske ponude i usluge. Glavni cilj hotelskog menadžmenta je ostvariti što veće poslovno-financijske rezultate koji će zahtijevati što manja ulaganja. Mala i srednja hotelska poduzeća predstavljaju jedan od glavnih izvora prihoda u Republici Hrvatskoj. Menadžeri prilikom upravljanja malim i srednjim hotelskim poduzećima moraju znati razumjeti nastale promjene na turističkom tržištu, prepoznati prilike za rast poduzeća te izgraditi dovoljno jak i prepoznatljiv brend. U ovom radu predstavlja se proces upravljanja malim i srednjim hotelskim poduzećima te se provodi analiza djelovanja menadžera u navedenom procesu.Management in the hotel industry can be defined as a system that creates, directs and coordinates all factors that influence the design of hotel offers and services. The main goal of hotel management is to achieve the greatest possible business and financial results that will require as little investment as possible. Small and medium-sized hotel companies represent one of the main sources of income in the Republic of Croatia. When managing small and medium-sized hotel companies, managers must be able to understand the changes in the tourism market, recognize opportunities for company growth, and build a sufficiently strong and recognizable brand. This paper presents the process of managing small and medium-sized hotel companies and analyzes the actions of managers in the said process
Investment decisions of the shipping company

Kako su česte situacije u kompanijama da su financijska sredstva ograničena, rukovodstvo kompanije treba provjeriti i analizirati mogućnosti zaduživanja iz drugih izvora, a kako bi se osigurala financijska sredstva za planirane investicije. Na odluku o zaduživanju iz drugih izvora sredstava, a kako bi se realizirale planirane investicije, utječu povezani mogući rizici, razdoblja dospijeća, porezne olakšice, volatilnost i stope inflacije. U radu u nastavku bit će predstavljene brodarske kompanije i investicijske odluke u brodarskoj kompaniji.Investment decisions are the most important financial decisions a company makes. They are an integral part of the company's strategic decision-making. As there are frequent situations in companies where financial resources are limited, the management of the company should check and analyze the possibilities of borrowing from other sources, in order to secure financial resources for planned investments. The decision to borrow from other sources of funds, in order to realize the planned investments, is influenced by associated possible risks, maturity periods, tax benefits, volatility and inflation rates. In the following paper, shipping companies and investment decisions in shipping companies will be presented
