    The BOSS online submission and assessment system

    No full text
    Computer programming lends itself to automated assessment. With appropriate software tools, program correctness can be measured, along with an indication of quality according to a set of metrics. Furthermore, the regularity of program code allows plagiarism detection to be an integral part of the tools that support assessment. In this paper, we describe a submission and assessment system, called BOSS, that supports coursework assessment through collecting submissions, performing automatic tests for correctness and quality, checking for plagiarism, and providing an interface for marking and delivering feedback. We describe how automated assessment is incorporated into BOSS such that it supports, rather than constrains, assessment. The pedagogic and administrative issues that are affected by the assessment process are also discussed

    Cílem předkládané práce je provést analýzu stávající marketingové strategie značky HUGO BOSS a s využitím vlastního výzkumu vedeného formou dotazníkového šetření navrhnout doporučení pro její zlepšení. První oddíl práce seznamuje čtenáře s teoretickými základy marketingu, jako jsou marketingový mix, komerční komunikace, SWOT analýza, marketingové strategie, role značky v marketingu a marketingový výzkum trhu. Druhý oddíl je zaměřen na praktickou aplikaci uvedených analýz a výsledků dotazníkového šetření. Tímto se rozumí předložení návrhů a doporučení, jež by značka HUGO BOSS mohla v budoucnu využít.The aim of this thesis is to analyse the current marketing strategy of the HUGO BOSS brand and to propose recommendations for its improvement using marketing research in the form of a questionnaire survey. The first section of the thesis introduces the reader to the theoretical foundations of marketing, such as marketing mix, commercial communication, SWOT analysis, marketing strategies, the role of the brand in marketing and market research. The second section focuses on the practical application of these analyses and the results of the questionnaire survey. This means putting forward suggestions and recommendations that the HUGO BOSS brand could use in the future

    Medard Boss´s Daseinsanalysis

    No full text
    Práce se zabývá výkladem psychoterapeutického směru daseinsanalýza, za jehož zakladatele je považován psychiatr a psychoterapeut Medard Boss. Tento směr vychází z fenomenologie Edmunda Husserla a fundamentální ontologie Martina Heideggera, jejichž podstata je v práci popsána. V popisu daseinanalýzy je uvedena nejprve obecná část, poté její zaměření na psychosomatiku a psychoterapii a nechybí ani kritika Freudovy psychoanalýzy. Podrobně se zde uvádí také informace o Bossově životě a jeho publikacích. Důležitou součástí je i výklad snů z daseinsanalytického hlediska, který je doplněn příklady snů. Práce vychází z detailního prostudování primární a sekundární literatury, ve které se objevují i cizojazyčné zdroje. Jedná se o celkové shrnutí a objasnění této problematiky.Katedra filozofieObhájenoThe work deals with the interpretation of the psychotherapeutic direction daseinsanalysis, whose founder is considered to be a psychiatrist and psychotherapist Medard Boss. This direction is based on the phenomenology of Edmund Husserl and Martin Heidegger's fundamental ontology, the nature of which is described in the work. The description of daseinsanalysis is presented in the first general part, then its focus on psychosomatic medicine and psychotherapy, and there is criticism of Freud's psychoanalysis. In detail, here also provides information about Bosse´s life and his publications. The important part is to interpret the dreams of daseinsanalytical point of view, which is supplemented by examples of dreams. The work is based on a detailed study of primary and secondary literature, which are primary and secondary sources. This is a general summary and clarification of this issue

    Stellar velocity dispersions and emission line properties of SDSS-III/BOSS galaxies

    No full text
    International audienceWe perform a spectroscopic analysis of 492 450 galaxy spectra from the first two years of observations of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) III/Baryonic Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS) collaboration. This data set has been released in the ninth SDSS data release, the first public data release of BOSS spectra. We show that the typical signal-to-noise ratio of BOSS spectra, despite being low, is sufficient to measure stellar velocity dispersion and emission line fluxes for individual objects. We show that the typical velocity dispersion of a BOSS galaxy is similar to 240 km s(-1). The typical error in the velocity dispersion measurement is 14 per cent, and 93 per cent of BOSS galaxies have velocity dispersions with an accuracy of better than 30 per cent. The distribution in velocity dispersion is redshift independent between redshifts 0.15 and 0.7, which reflects the survey design targeting massive galaxies with an approximately uniform mass distribution in this redshift interval. We show that emission lines can be measured on BOSS spectra. However, the majority of BOSS galaxies lack detectable emission lines, as is to be expected because of the target selection design towards massive galaxies. We analyse the emission line properties and present diagnostic diagrams using the emission lines [O II], H beta, [OIII], H alpha and [N II] (detected in about 4 per cent of the galaxies) to separate star-forming objects and active galactic nuclei (AGN). We show that the emission line properties are strongly redshift dependent and that there is a clear correlation between observed frame colours and emission line properties. Within in the low-z sample (LOWZ) around 0.15 \textless z \textless 0.3, half of the emission line galaxies have low-ionization nuclear emission-line region (LINER)-like emission line ratios, followed by Seyfert-AGN-dominated spectra, and only a small fraction of a few per cent are purely star-forming galaxies. AGN and LINER-like objects, instead, are less prevalent in the high-z sample (CMASS) around 0.4 \textless z \textless 0.7, where more than half of the emission line objects are star forming. This is a pure selection effect caused by the non-detection of weak H beta emission lines in the BOSS spectra. Finally, we show that star-forming, AGN and emission line free galaxies are well separated in the g - r versus r - i target selection diagram

    Chemical and sensory profiling of Shiraz wines co-fermented with commercial non-Saccharomyces inocula

    Background and Aims: The choice of yeast strain(s) to conduct the fermentation can greatly affect wine chemical and sensory profile. Even though the use of non-Saccharomyces co-inocula to build complexity and diversify styles is increasingly in vogue, a limited number of such products are available to date, and more research is required to guide their use in the wine industry. This study evaluates the potential of commercial yeast inocula to modulate the quality of Shiraz wines at two maturity levels. Methods and Results: Vinification outcomes of eight yeast treatments were compared in earlier (24°Brix) and later (29°Brix) harvested Shiraz fruit. Yeast treatments included five non-Saccharomyces products with sequentially inoculated Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a commercial blend of non-Saccharomyces and S. cerevisiae strains, and a S. cerevisiae inoculum. Fermentation monitoring, and comprehensive analytical profiling in terms of basic chemistry, volatile composition, phenolic measurements and descriptive sensory analysis, allowed for the comparison of the resulting wines. Both harvest date and yeast inoculation treatments had a significant impact on a range of compositional and, in turn, sensory parameters of the wines. Conclusions: Certain non-Saccharomyces sequential inoculation treatments led to increased appeal of earlier harvest wines compared to the S. cerevisiae Control. These treatments, however, were related to an increased risk of arrested fermentation in higher ripeness conditions. Significance of the Study: This study contributes to a better understanding of yeast inoculum-derived modulation of Shiraz wine quality parameters at different maturity levels.A. Hranilovic, S.
