Abstract

First and foremost, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to my thesis supervisor Prof. Edwin Hang Tong Teo for his continuous support on my research and postgraduate study over the past four years. He gave me insightful advices on research projects, taught me the essential skill in conducting and presenting research, and provided me with precious opportunities to work close with many outstanding members in our group. I would also like to thank the rest of my thesis advice committee: Prof. Ken Tye Yong and Prof. Qihua Xiong for their insightful comments and encouragement.
