I would like to express my gratitude to all those who helped me during the whole of my project. I

gratefully acknowledge the help of my supervisor, Dr Ana Beatriz Galvao, who has offered me

valuable suggestions in the academic studies. In the whole of final project, she has spent much

time to help me and provided me with inspiring advice. Without her patient instructions,

insightful criticisms and expert guidance, the completion of this project would not have been

possible.

In the end, my gratitude also extends to my family and friends who have been assisting,

supporting and caring for me all of my life.
