Abstract
My assignment was to critique and integrate the previous papers. I have organized this paper as follows: (1) a description and rationale for a checklist which can be used in judging the quality of a fidelity measure; (2) a critique of the Schaedle and Epstein paper; (4) a critique of the Lucca paper; and (4) a review of the paper by Bond, Evans, Salyers, Williams, and Kim.
