This repository contains the source of my bachelor’s thesis. I have made the source available here in the hope that it will be useful to somebody. The output pdf is freely accessible at the university website anyway. For convenience the pdf is also included in this repository.

You will need the following prerequisites:

  • A recent TeX Live distribution (I tested 2014 and 2015)
