Abstract Feedback

Text clarity Coherent

Language Good. Minor error e.g. writing "constraint" when "constrain" is meant

Description of the tool/theory/concept Good, but paragraph 2 is difficult to follow: Does "other constraints" refer to constraints within the quality constraint?

Purpose explanation Good, but a lot of constraints have been introduced in the abstract (see comment above) - will the article focus on a particular few or all of them?

References Good, but add the mandatory references in the "Reference material"

Relevance of article Definitely relevant, but look at the comments above for improvement
