Most importantly, none of this would have been possible without the love and
patience of my family. My immediate family, to whom this thesis is dedicated to, has
been a constant source of love, concern, support and strength all these years. I would like
to express my heart-felt gratitude to my family.

strength to undertake this research task and enabling me to its completion.
