Acknowledgement

First of all, I would like to thank Prof.Dr.Grune, for his excellent supervision, provision of
the topic, assignment of the workplace and for his encouragement throughout the program.

I would like to thank Prof. Dr. Lutz Graeve for his help as a second supervisor.

My special thanks to Andrea Flaccus, Dagma Mvondo, Brigitte Wendt, Stephanie
Allenfort and Christiane Hallwachs for sharing their practical knowledgements with great
patience.

In particular I would like to thank cordially Dr. Nicolle Breusing and Stefanie Grimm for
their help with any problem.

I thank Tobias Jung and Annika Höhn for their help.

I also thank to Edina Bakondi for sharing the results and for the guidance of her previous
work.

I also thank all members of the group for the wonderful support, hospitality, good
cooperation and the pleasant working atmosphere.

Besides all, I thank to my husband for his patience and great effort during my stay.
