Acknowledgements s
First of all, I would like to thank my thesis advisors Prof. B. Smit and Prof. R. Krishna for theirr contributions to this mesis. I enjoyed working in your groups very much, both from aa professional as a personal point of view.
Second, I would like to thank all people with whom I have collaborated; most of them will havee a contribution to this thesis (in random order): my thesis advisors, Daan Frenkel (Recoill Growth), my former undergraduate student and present colleague (soon to be formerr colleague) Merijn Schenk, Irma van de Ven-Lucassen and everyone else in Eind-hoven,, Marcus G. Martin and J. Ilja Siepmann (Dual cut-off CBMC), Richard Schumacher andd Willy van Well (TUE), Simon Bates, Weidong Zhu and Freek Kapteijn (TEOM experi-ments,, DD3R), Thierry Maris, Sander Willemsen (DPD), Jochem Wichers Hoeth and Stella Constaa (Recoil Growth), Theo Maesen, Silvia Lopez Vidal, Christoph Dellago (Transition Pathh Sampling and the huge amount of CPU time on "max" [103,104]), JC/Catherine and everyonee else at EPCC, Eric Lobenstine and Patrick (Beowulf cluster, U or R), and Zhimei Du.. By the way, if somebody who has performed biased Monte Carlo simulations uses the words:: "in random order", you should really worry!
Third, I would like to thank all present and former colleagues of ITS for the very nice timee I had in Amsterdam. Special thanks to those colleagues doing computer simulations (Berend'ss group). Thanks to Marieke Kranenburg for a critical reading of this manuscript. Finally, I would like to thank my family and friends that are not related to my research forr the support during the last few years; especially my parents. I would like to thank my mumm for finding a lot of typos in the first version of this manuscript.
