## Abstract In this paper, which is based on the first part of the author's PhD thesis, we review the statistics of the open string sector in __T__^6^/(โค~2~ ร โค~2~) orientifold compactifications of type IIA. After an introduction to the orientifold setup we discuss the two different techniques that

Abstract
The aim of this article is to review some recent progress in the field of intersecting Dโbrane models. This includes the construction of chiral, semiโrealistic flux compactifications, the systematic study of Gepner model orientifolds, the computation of various terms in the low energy effective action and the investigation of the statistics of solutions to the tadpole cancellation conditions.

## Abstract We calculate the oneโloop corrections to gauge couplings in __N__ = 1 supersymmetric brane world models, which are realized in an type __IIA__ orbifold/orientifold background with several stacks of D6 branes wrapped on 3โcycles with nonโvanishing intersections. Contributions arise from
## Abstract The state of the art in Dโbrane model building is briefly reviewed, focusing on recent achievements in the construction of __D__ = 4 ๐ฉ = 1 type II string vacua with semiโrealistic gauge sectors. Such progress relies on a better understanding of the spectrum of BPS Dโbranes, the effectiv
