			=== Your "final contribution" ===

			Develop one of the "final contributions" that you proposed. First, just paste in what you already wrote. Second, respond to any reviews or comments to make sure that the contribution is clearly stated and that the demonstrations are sufficient and appropriate. Note that these are not demonstrations of feasibility, but demonstrations of the contribution; these demonstrations are a part of the research that is being proposed. Third, add one or two paragraphs explaining the significance of the contribution you are proposing in the context of related work. Use an NIH or NSF definition of significance -- it should be real research significance. Also speculate on the broader impact of your contribution.

			The evaluation criteria for this will be:

			# Clarity of contribution and clarity of description of contribution;
			# Effectiveness of demonstration(s) and clarity of their description;
			# Accuracy, balance, and clarity of significance description;
			# Brevity (absolute maximum of 2 pages at 11pt single-spaced with 1" margins)
