This paper is an extended version of an earlier conference paper (Mokhovet al., 2018).The key changes compared to the earlier version are: (i) we added further clarifications and examples to §3, in particular, §3.8 is entirely new; (ii) §4 and §5 are based on the material from the conference paper but have been substantially expanded to include further details and examples, as well as completely new material such as §5.2.2; (iii) §7 is completely new; (iv) §8.1 and §§8.6-8.9 are almost entirely new, and §8.3 has been revised. The new material focuses on our experience and various important practical considerations, hence justifying the “and Practice” part of the paper title

There is a summary by the end of section 1:
