========================= Chapter content ==========================


=========================== Template in English ======================

Chapter <chapter-number>
<title> 

A brief paragraph:
  - summarizing the content of the chapter, perhaps
    linking it to previous chapters AND 
  - a road map to the content of the chapter. The
    road map should not list the number of sections.

---- sections --------

<chapter-number.section-number> <section-title>

- Always start with a sentence, never a subsection.

- If the section has subsections, introduce what the content of the
  whole section. Put as many figures and examples as possible.

- Every new concept has to be illustrated by a simple
  example. Preferably use one running example throughout the thesis,
  if you can't, throughout the chapter, if you can't, throughout the
  section (i.e., make the examples as global as possible).

- Clearly state quotations using \begin{quote}.... \end{quote}, and
  references (i.e., no plagiarizing from other documents).

---- end of sections --------

Summary

Always finish the chapter with a 3 to 6 lines summary that summarizes
what was discussed in/the contribution of the chapter.  The Summary
section should not be numbered, use \section*{Summary}.

---- end of chapter --------
