Notes related to this chapter can be found in Notion: Thesis Structure.

Note: The Appendices chapter will be created throughout the writing of the thesis and only finalized in this issue.

General draft & post-supervisor quality points to check

Grammar, Spelling, etc.

• [x] Address and remove TODOs (including \TODO)
• [x] Hyphenation:
  • [x] "non-zero" is not as popular -> use "nonzero" instead
  • [x] Replace all "sub-" prefixes with "sub" (for example: "sub-optimal" -> "suboptimal" - correct according to the Oxford dictionary)
• [x] Full stops and commas:
  • [x] Full stops and commas after equations if the equations are part of a sentence
  • [x] Thousands separated by comma
  • [x] Bullet points that are meant to be a part of the sentence should be separated by a comma and the last bullet should have a dot at the end (if it ends the sentence)
• [x] Bullet points - consistent formatting, e.g., if they're individual sentences -> colon + capital letter right after. If they're part of a sentence, then colon + small letter right after.
• [x] Titles of Chapter/Section/etc. follow correct capitalization
• [x] Double-check spelling using TeXstudio and Grammarly

  Text formatting

• [x] Numbers in the text must not be in math mode
• [x] References to sections etc. have a capital letter in the text (Section~\ref{}, Figure~\ref{}, Table~\ref{})
• [x] Quotes, or statements in "" should be italicized
• [x] No indented line after an object that slices a text in two
• [x] Use "" for multiplication only in in-line code, e.g., `U = R I`
• [x] Mathematics formatting:
  • [x] Variables in cursive font
  • [x] Constants in non-cursive (using \mathrm{})
  • [x] Do not use "*" for multiplication in math mode as it signifies convolution
  • [x] Use \mathbf{} for matrices and vectors (\mathbb{} is used for sets)
  • [x] Shortcuts in sub- and super-script should not be in cursive, e.g. X^{new} "new" should not be cursive)
  • [x] \nonumber\,. should be before newline
• [x] Code formatting:
  • [x] Courier font and grey background (in-line and code block)
  • [x] Check code in all lstlistings for correct syntax highlighting
  • [x] Code blocks:
  • [x] Consistent spacing in code - Do: for( int... i++ ); Don't: for ()
  • [x] Consistent formatting of {} - Do: void func()\n{ \n}; Don't void func() { \n}
  • [x] No spacing from the left part of the listing
• [x] Citations in the text:
  • [x] Spaces between text and citations
  • [x] Multiple citations must be in one \cite{a, b, c} command, not \cite{a}\cite{b}\cite{c}
• [x] Variables in cursive font, e.g., ICMx (x can be one of 8, 16, 32)
• [x] Consistent label names
  • Template: {Type:chapter->section->subsection->subsubsection->specific-content-name}
• [x] No line overflowing (text, in-line code, etc.)
• [x] Consistent footnotes - they must either contain URL if a Url follows, or not.

Supervisor review

Conclusion

• [x] Repeat the meaning of abbreviations (libraries and procedures) in the Conclusion.
  • To make it understandable for those who have not read the entire thesis.
  • For example, mention that BDDCML is a library for domain decomposition, specifically Multilevel Balancing Domain Decomposition by Constraints solver Library.
