Table of contents

Backmatter
Appendices, glossary and references close the thesis.
Appendices
Appendices are created with the \appendix command and work as any LaTex chapters,
with the possibility of using sections, subsections etc.
\appendix
% Appendix A
\chapter{Appendix A title}
\section{...}

\section{...}

Any new \chapter{} statement will result in a new appendix with a default
ordering A, B, C etc.
