Filenames are a concise means of conveying information about source code to fellow developers. One such convention is util. Commonly understood to stand for "utility", filenames with the letters util …
Software development is a sociotechnical and human-centered endeavor in which human factors directly influence quality, productivity, and innovation capacity. In this context, career development in co…
Numerous metascience studies and other initiatives have begun to monitor the prevalence of open science practices when it is more important to understand the 'downstream' effects or impacts of open sc…
In Mixed-Criticality (MC) systems, although the high Worst-Case Execution Time (WCET) serves as a conservative upper bound representing the task's maximum execution time under all conditions, obtainin…
Multimodal Retrieval-Augmented Generation (MRAG) is widely adopted for Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) with external evidence to reduce hallucinations. Despite its success, most existing MRAG…
Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used for recommendation reranking, but their listwise predictions can depend on the order in which candidates are presented. This creates a mismatch betwe…
The convergence of 5G and IoT enables fully connected, intelligent environments, but it faces challenges from the fragmentation of public/private 5G networks and the heterogeneity of IoT networks. We …
Autonomous agent frameworks built upon large language models (LLMs) are evolving into complex, tool-integrated, and continuously operating systems, introducing security risks beyond traditional prompt…
This paper introduces the Structural Dissolution Framework to explain how artificial intelligence restructures the coordination architecture of traditional industries. We argue that AI dissolves the b…
Pretrial risk assessment tools are used on over one million U.S. defendants each year, yet their use for predicting rare violent re-offense faces a basic statistical barrier. We derive a universal pre…
Large language model (LLM) agents are increasingly deployed in social settings, yet little is known about how they interact in open-ended environments. We present the first comprehensive sociological …
Evaluating text-to-SQL systems remains largely fragile: correctness is typically judged by executing predicted and gold SQL queries on a single static database, even though the same queries may behave…
We introduce the problem of adaptive self-organization in which the nodes of an anonymous, synchronous dynamic network must distributively change the collective distribution of their responses (or "co…
Training large language models requires jointly configuring two interdependent aspects of the system: the global batch size, which governs statistical efficiency, and the 3D parallelism strategy, whic…
We introduce a toolkit for uncovering spurious correlations between recording characteristics and target class in speech datasets. Spurious correlations may arise due to heterogeneous recording condit…
In the rapidly evolving field of software engineering, the skills required of graduates entering the job market are constantly changing. Several studies have identified a gap between the skills taught…
Process malleability has proved to have a highly positive impact on the resource utilization and global productivity in data centers compared with the conventional static resource allocation policy. H…
We present a learning-augmented online algorithm for the preemptive FIFO buffer management problem, where packets arrive online to a finite-capacity buffer, must be transmitted in FIFO order, and the …
Rapid environmental change and advances in data-driven analysis highlight the need not only to use computational tools, but also to foster understanding of the natural world and inspire creativity. Ph…
With recent semantic query processing engines, semantic aggregation has become a primitive operator, enabling the reduction of a relation into a natural language aggregate using an LLM. However, the r…
