I would like to acknowledge the two people who most contributed
to my development as a scientist.  Dr.\ Steven Dytman from
the University of Pittsburgh, my adviser for four years
and Dr.\ Tim Menzies without whom this thesis would never exist.

Of course there are numerous other people who, 
through their friendship and understanding, 
helped make this work possible, 
but there isn't space to enumerate them all.
They know who they are and I thank them.
