Acknowledgements<br />
First I owe a great debt of gratitude to Walter Zulehner, not only for advising my thesis<br />
but for arousing my interest and deepening my understanding in the scientific field I am<br />
currently working in.<br />
I would also like to thank Ulrich Langer who, as leader of the project and head of the<br />
institute I am employed in, provided me with scientific and financial background, and who<br />
made constructive suggestions on many details of this thesis, and I want to thank Arnold<br />
Reusken for co-refereeing this dissertation.<br />
Special thanks go to Ferdinand Kickinger who supplied me with industrial test cases<br />
and with whom I had some very fruitful discussions, and to all other people who are<br />
responsible for some aspects of this thesis by “asking the right questions”.<br />
