 	\item[Chapter 4: Implementation] \mbox{} \\
 		This chapter explains the implementation of the GPU interpreter and transpiler. The details of the implementation with the used technologies are covered, such as the interpretation process and the transpilation of the expressions into Parallel Thread Execution (PTX) code.
 	\item[Chapter 5: Evaluation] \mbox{} \\
-		The software and hardware requirements and the evaluation environment are introduced in this chapter. All three evaluators will be compared against each other and the form of the expressions used for the comparisons are outlined. Finally, the results of the comparison of the GPU and CPU evaluators are presented to show which of these yields the best performance.
+		The software and hardware requirements and the evaluation environment are introduced in this chapter. All three evaluators will be compared against each other and the form of the expressions used for the comparisons are outlined. The comparison will not only include the time taken for the pure evaluation, but it will also include the overhead, like PTX code generation. Finally, the results of the comparison of the GPU and CPU evaluators are presented to show which of these yields the best performance.
 	\item[Chapter 6: Conclusion] \mbox{} \\
 		In the final chapter, the entire work is summarised. A brief overview of the implementation as well as the evaluation results will be provided. Additionally, an outlook of possible future research is given.
