Acknowledgments
I owe eternal gratitude to Dr. Zartash Uzmi and Dr. Umar Saif for their constant support. I got interested in computer systems research because of Umar Saif and over the years he has been a mentor and helped shape my career to whatever it is and whatever it is shaping out to be. Zartash Uzmi dedicated countless time and energy to advise and guide me not only in work-related matters but in life-in-general as well.
This by-far is not the end of my acknolwedgments list but its amazing to see how people dont even say "Thank You" to those who help change their lives.
