Abstract
It is absolutely crucial to get your title exactly right, because most people will never read anything more than your paper’s title. Researchers look at dozens of titles to find just one paper that interests them. Looking only at your title, they will make a snap judgment about whether or not your paper is sufficiently relevant and interesting to them to go look at the Abstract. Your title should make it crystal clear what your paper is about.
