I want to extent my thanks to some persons who have been important to me during this project and were a great source of relaxation every time I needed it. First I want to thank God and his Son, Jesus Christ, for being with me every day of my live. Secondly my brother, who has helped me relax at the end of each workday, which was particularly helpful in the last few months, as I was often making workweeks of seven days.
