We would like to pay our special regards to our principal Dr. P. K. PALANI for
providing us a constructive environment for carrying out the project.

We would indeed like to express our regards as well as our gratitude to our Head of
the Department Dr. K. RAMANATHAN for his support in the execution of the
project.

We wish to express our sincere regards to our guide Dr. R. SARALA, Associate
Professor (CAS), who convincingly guided and encouraged us to be professional and
do the right thing even when the road got tough. Without his persistent help, the goal
of this project would not have been realized.

Assistant Professor, for his guidance, constant supervision and for his support in
completing the project.

We would also like to express our special gratitude and thanks to our other faculties

willingly helped us out with their abilities.

We are also thankful to all our family and friends who have supported until
now and extended their help at need to make this happen.
