Acknowledgement
Because thanking others is part of gratitude to Allah, I would like to express my gratitude and appreciation to all those who gave me the possibility to complete this report. Since then, there are a number of people who deserve recognition for their unwavering support and guidance throughout this project. I would like to take this opportunity to thank them.
First and foremost, I want to thank my project advisor Dr. Monther Najim who gave me help, advice and suggestions, constant stimulation and encouragement.
I also want to thank my friends who have encouraged me over the course of this Project, for listening to me, encouraging me to pursue my project and being there every step of the way.
Finally, I want to thank my family. Especially my parents who have been a source of strength. They continually push me to think critically and never settle for anything less than my best. They kept me focused, on track and fed in the final stretch of my project. For their continual support, I am forever grateful.
