Redesign of a system for production planning and control

V magistrskem delu je bila izvedena analiza obstoječega sistema operativnega planiranja in vodenja proizvodnje (OPVP), pri čemer so bile ugotovljene precejšnje pomanjkljivosti. S posnetkom in prenovo procesov OPVP so bile dosežene pomembne izboljšave, ki zagotavljajo večjo kakovost informacij in prispevajo k večji hitrosti obdelave podatkov. Prenovljeni sistem je bil preizkušen na pilotnih primerih.In the master\u27s thesis, an analysis of the existing system for operational production planning and control (OPVP) was performed, where significant deficiencies have been identified. With the recording and redesign of OPVP processes, significant improvements have been achieved, which ensure a better quality of information and contribute to a greater speed of data processing. The redesigned system was tested on pilot cases

The Concept of Integrated Adaptation of the Operation of Ski Schools and Clubs to Working Conditions in Cases of Epidemiological Phenomena

V magistrski nalogi smo analizirali posledice novega koronavirusa na nadaljnji razvoj alpskega smučanja. Na podlagi dosedanjih dejstev smo izhajali iz treh možnosti celostne prilagoditve delovanja smučarskih šol in klubov v primerih epidemioloških pojavov. Scenarij A predvideva epidemiološko sliko, pri kateri omejitveni ukrepi niso potrebni, scenarij B predvideva epidemiološko sliko z upoštevanjem omejitvenih ukrepov za varno izvedbo smučarskih dejavnosti, scenarij C pa predvideva epidemiološko sliko, ki ni primerna za delovanje smučarskih šol in klubov. Glede na objektivne okoliščine in aktualno epidemiološko sliko v Sloveniji smo se v magistrskem delu osredotočili na scenarij B. Pri tem smo izhajali iz splošnih ukrepov Vlade Republike Slovenije, ki smo jih nekoliko prilagodili okoliščinam in za uporabo pri učenju alpskega smučanja. Ukrepi se nanašajo na fizično distanciranje, uporabo zaščitnih obraznih mask v primerih, ko distanca ni mogoča, in na skrb za osebno higieno, predvsem umivanje in razkuževanje rok. V konceptu so opisani različni načini poučevanja v smučarskih šolah (individualno, skupinsko) in delo klubov (treningi, tekmovanja) skupaj s pripadajočimi ukrepi za zagotovitev varnosti in preprečevanje širjenja okužb. Ure učenja v smučarskih šolah in treninge v klubih smo še dodatno razdelili na manjše dele, da bi zagotovili čim večjo varnost. Realnost kaže, da bi upoštevajoč potrebne ukrepe v prihodnosti lahko prilagojeno izvajali vse vrste učenja in treninga alpskega smučanja, slednje pa velja tudi za izvedbo zimskih šol v naravi in izvedbo športnih dni v osnovnih in srednjih šolah.In the master\u27s thesis, we analyzed the consequences of the new coronavirus on the further development of alpine skiing. Based on the facts so far, we proceeded from three possibilities of integrated adjustment of the operation of ski schools and clubs in cases of epidemiological phenomena. Scenario A assumes an epidemiological condition where restrictive measures are not required. Scenario B assumes an epidemiological condition with restrictive measures for the safe conduct of skiing activities. Scenario C assumes an epidemiological condition that is not suitable for the operation of ski schools and clubs. Given the objective circumstances and the current epidemiological picture in Slovenia, in the master\u27s thesis, we focused on scenario B. We proceeded from the general measures of the Government of the Republic of Slovenia, which were slightly adapted to the circumstances and for use in learning alpine skiing. The measures relate to physical distancing, the use of protective face masks in cases where distance is not possible, and the care of personal hygiene, like handwashing and disinfection. The concept describes the different ways of teaching in ski schools (individual, group) and the work of clubs (trainings, competitions) together with the accompanying measures to ensure safety and prevent the spread of infections. Hours of learning in ski schools and training in clubs were further divided into smaller parts to ensure maximum safety. The reality shows that taking into account the necessary measures in the future, all types of learning and training of alpine skiing could be carried out in an adapted manner. The same applies to the implementation of winter schools in nature and the implementation of sports days in primary and secondary schools

The Slovenian Minority in Argentina Through the Prism of Music Culture: A Case Study of the Slovenian Club Naš dom in San Justo

Magistrsko delo se teoretično naslanja na študij glasbe v kontekstih manjšin, migracij in diaspor. Osredotoča se na slovensko manjšino v Argentini, pri kateri je glasbena kultura pomemben identitetni dejavnik. Prvo priseljevanje Slovencev v Argentino beležimo že v sredini 17. stoletja, Vendar so se večje migracije, povezane z obema svetovnima vojnama, odvile šele v 20. stoletju. Ključni za obravnavanje glasbene kulture so slovenski domovi in društva, ki so pomagali pri medsebojnem povezovanju priseljencev v novi državi. Magistrsko delo osvetljuje pomen in vlogo glasbe pri teh skupnostih Slovencev v Argentini, vključno z dejavnostmi, dogodki, osebnostmi, programi, glasbenimi zasedbami, šolstvom, mediji ter povezavami s Slovenijo skozi gostovanja glasbenikov. Glasbo jemlje v najširšem pomenu besede, vključno z domenami tradicijske, umetnostne in popularne glasbe ter medsebojnimi prepletanji. Nalogo zaokrožuje podrobna predstavitev v sklopu empirične študije največjega slovenskega doma v Buenos Airesu, to je Naš dom v San Justu.This master\u27s thesis, based on the theoretical foundations of music research related to minority, migration and diaspora studies, focuses on the Slovenian minority in Argentina, where music culture is one of the most important identity markers. The first immigration of Slovenes to Argentina dates back to the mid-17th century, but major migrations occurred in the 20th century in connection with the World Wars. The Slovenian clubs (homes) and societies that helped the immigrants to accommodate in the new country are considered the most important sites for the study of the musical culture of Slovenes in Argentina. This master\u27s thesis highlights the importance and roles of music in these communities, including activities, events, personalities, programs, musical groups, education, media, and connections to Slovenia reflected in guest performances. Music is understood in its broadest meaning, including traditional, art, and popular domains, and their intersections. The work is rounded out by a detailed empirical study of the largest Slovenian home in Buenos Aires, Naš dom (Our Home), in San Justo

Preparation and implementation of an individual physical exercise program for mothers 6 weeks after childbirth

Ženske se v poporodnem obdobju srečujejo z različnimi zdravstvenimi težavami, kot so urinska inkontinenca, bolečine v medenično-ledvenem, prsnem in vratnem delu hrbtenice, povezane z razmikom preme trebušne mišice in disfunkcijo mišic medeničnega dna. Razmik preme trebušne mišice je povezan s šibkimi mišicami medeničnega dna. V pričujočem magistrskem delu smo zato želeli raziskati stopnjo ozaveščenosti in znanje pravilne aktivacije mamic o mišicah medeničnega dna in ostalih mišicah notranje enote. Vzorec je predstavljal naključne prostovoljke, mamice, približno šest tednov po porodu, ki niso rodile s carskim rezom. Eksperimentalna skupina je dva meseca trikrat tedensko obiskovala individualno strokovno telesno vadbo pod stalnim strokovnim nadzorom kineziologinje. Razlike smo opazovali pri analizi specialnega ginekološkega pregleda, fizioterapevtskega pregleda, kineziološkega pregleda, anketnega vprašalnika ter testov gibalnih sposobnosti. Ugotovili smo, da mamice po porodu ne dosegajo stopnje dejavnosti v skladu s smernicami. Potrdili smo hipotezo, da je na koncu eksperimenta eksperimentalna skupina bolje ozaveščena in bolj telesno dejavna kot kontrolna skupina. Prav tako smo potrdili boljše poznavanje in izvedbo pravilne aktivacije mišic medeničnega dna in ostalih mišic notranje enote pri eksperimentalni skupini. Potrdili smo tudi tretjo hipotezo, da bo imela eksperimentalna skupina manj zdravstvenih težav in boljše rezultate testov gibalnih sposobnosti. Z izvedenim eksperimentom smo pokazali, da je potrebno spodbujanje sodelovanja strokovnih delavcev na tem področju (ginekolog, fizioterapevt in kineziolog) za doseganje dobrega telesnega in psihičnega stanja mamic po porodu. Predstavili smo, da je za ranljivo skupino mamic po porodu pomembna strokovna telesna vadba individualno prilagojena vsaki posameznici. Na podlagi izsledkov eksperimenta ugotavljamo, da je potrebno okrepiti ozaveščanje mamic o pomenu rehabilitacije mišic medeničnega dna po porodu in podajamo predloge rešitev.In the postpartum period women face various health problems such as urinary incontinence, pain in the pelvic-lumbar, thoracic and cervical spine, associated with diastasis recti abdominis and pelvic floor muscles dysfunction. Diastasis recti abdominis is associated with weak pelvic floor muscles. In this master\u27s thesis, we therefore wanted to investigate the level of awareness and knowledge of correct activation of mothers regarding the muscles of the pelvic floor and other muscles of the internal unit. The sample consisted of random volunteers, mothers, approximately six weeks postpartum, who did not give birth by caesarean section. The experimental group attended individual professional physical training three times a week for two months under the constant professional supervision of a kinesiologist. Differences were observed in the analysis of a special gynecological examination, physiotherapy examination, kinesiological examination, survey questionnaire and tests of movement abilities. We found that mothers do not reach the level of activity in accordance with the guidelines after giving birth. We confirmed the hypothesis that at the end of the experiment, the experimental group will be more aware and more physically active than the control group. We also confirmed better knowledge and execution of correct activation of the pelvic floor muscles and other muscles of the internal unit in the experimental group. We also confirmed the third hypothesis, that the experimental group will have fewer health problems and better results in motor skills tests. Through the experiment we have shown that it is necessary to encourage the cooperation of professionals in this field (gynecologist, physiotherapist and kinesiologist) in order to achieve a good physical and psychological state of mothers after childbirth. We presented that for the vulnerable group of mothers after childbirth, professional physical exercise, individually adapted to each individual, is important. Based on the results of the experiment, we conclude that it is necessary to raise the awareness of mothers about the importance of rehabilitation of the pelvic floor muscles after childbirth, and we provide suggestions for solutions

Analysis of results in Slovenian alpine skiing between 1974 and 2017

V diplomski nalogi smo analizirali slovensko tekmovalno alpsko smučanje med letoma 1974 in 2017. Na podlagi analize rezultatov iz tekem svetovnega pokala smo definirali obdobja tekmovalnih uspehov, tako v moškem kot v ženskem alpskem smučanju. V obdobju preteklih štirih desetletij je slovensko smučanje bilo deležno mnogih uspehov, pa tudi obdobij kriz in s tem slabših rezultatov. Na osnovi doseženih rezultatov bomo tako za moško kot tudi žensko alpsko smučanje definirali najpomembnejša obdobja, na osnovi dejavnikov uspešnosti v športu pa smo po obdobjih izpostavili tiste sklope dejavnikov uspešnosti, ki so bili za določeno obdobje najbolj tipični oz. v ospredju. Največji uspehi v slovenskem tekmovalnem alpskem smučanju se začnejo z Bojanom Križajem, ki kot sedemnajst-letnik opozori nase na članskem svetovnem prvenstvu v St. Moritzu leta 1974. Prelomna pa je bila predvsem sezona 1974/75, ko je Križaj v Mayerhofnu (AUT) postal mladinski evropski prvak v slalomu. Kasneje so poleg Križaja za mnoge uspehe zaslužni tudi številni drugi slovenski smučarji. Ti so v različnih obdobjih pripomogli k naši prepoznavnosti in so predvsem v času Jugoslavije predstavljali pomemben simbol narodne identifikacije.In this thesis, we analyzed results in the Slovenian alpine skiing between years 1974 and 2017. Based on the analysis of the results, from World Cup races, we defined periods of succes in both men\u27s and women\u27s alpine skiing. Over the past four decades, Slovenian skiing has received many successes, as well as periods of crises and poorer results. On the basis of the results achieved, the most important periods were defined, for both men and women alpine skiing. On the basis of factors of success in sport, we then highlighted those sets of performance factors that were the most typical for a certain period of time. The biggest successes in the Slovenian alpine skiing starts with Bojan Križaj. He, first warns of himself at the 1974 World Cup in St. Moritz, at the age of 17. A year later, in season 1974/75, Križaj became the young European slalom champion in Mayerhofen (AUT). Later, in addition to Križaj, many other skiers were also responsible for many successes. Those skiers were then responsible for our recognition and were, especially during Yugoslavia, an important symbol of national identification

On the inheritance of causative variants for polygenic traits in yeast

Genetska arhitektura poligenskih lastnosti je kompleksna. Vsi vzročni elementi v splošnem niso poznani, k variabilnosti take lastnosti pa prispevajo tudi viri dedljivosti višjih redov. Da bi odkrili in ovrednotili vzročne variante za variabilnost v odpornosti kvasovke Saccharomyces cerevisiae proti NaCl kot poligenski lastnosti, smo križali haploidna starševska seva različnih fenotipov. Spremljali smo porazdelitev fenotipa v populaciji njunih potomcev (segregant) in spreminjanje povprečnega fenotipa populacije v sedmih stopnjah povratnega križanja. Po koraku fenotipizacije vsake generacije smo odbrali segreganto z najbolj izboljšanim fenotipom. Na osnovi analize porazdelitve frekvenc starševskih alelov v povprečni populaciji in populaciji, sposobni rasti v ekstremno slanih pogojih, smo predpostavili potencialne vzročne lokuse kvantitativne lastnosti (QTL). Njihov prenos skozi generacije povratnega križanja smo spremljali na osnovi genomskih zaporedij proti soli najbolj odpornih segregant. S primerjavo prenosa potencialnih lokusov kvantitativne lastnosti, spreminjanjem povprečnega fenotipa populacije in določenega fenotipa najbolj odpornih segregant, smo ovrednotili vzročnost lokusov kvantitativne lastnosti. Da bi vzročne elemente določili natančneje, smo jih skušali opredeliti na mehanistični molekularnobiološki ravni. Glede na heterogenost in funkcijsko vključenost genov znotraj lokusa kvantitativne lastnosti smo predlagali nove vzročne gene kvantitativne lastnosti (QTG). Razliko v fenotipu smo pojasnili na osnovi napovedi strukturnih variant produktov mogočih vzročnih genov kvantitativne lastnosti. Predpostavili smo potencialne razlike v vlogi in delovanju proteinskih variant, ki vodijo v variabilnost odpornosti proti NaCl.Polygenic trait’s genetic architecture is complex and all its causative elements are generally unknown. Variability of such a trait also depends on higher order heritability factors. To dissect and assess causative variants for NaCl tolerance as a case of a polygenic trait, we crossed 2 parental haploid yeast strains of large phenotypic difference. We monitored the distribution of the phenotype in a population of their progeny and following 7 generations of backcrossing. After each phenotyping step of a given generation, we selected the offspring strain with the most advanced phenotype. Analysis of distribution of parental alleles in populations growing in extreme saline and reference conditions allowed us to predict possible causative quantitative trait loci (QTL). On the basis of genomic sequences of the selected segregants we followed the inheritance of predicted quantitative trait loci over the generations. Inheritance of potential quantitative trait loci, average population phenotype shift and quantitatively assessed phenotype of selected segregants pointed out importance of certain quantitative trait loci. To determine causative elements more toroughly, we provided their relatedness on mechanistic and molecular biology level. Our prediction of novel quantitative trait genes (QTG) is based on heterogeneity and functional relatedness of genes within notable quantitative trait loci. Phenotypic diversity was justified on the basis of predicted structural variants of products of possible causative quantitative trait genes. We presumed potential differences in both role and mechanism of action of protein variants that lead to variability in resistance to NaCl
