Below you will find a (long) presentation with some ideas on this.
Below you will find a link to a mind-map that sort of collects my ideas to do my research. This is a work in progress and new information will be added regularly.
You can find this mindmap here (this is a fixed version readable from the web).
You can also use the original mindmap from here but than you need this viewer.
