Abstract

This publication establishes the unified Arcstone Executive Epistemic Whitepaper Series (EXEC01–EXEC03), providing the foundational theory and operational mechanics for machine-native execution boundaries and zero-operational-drag computing (C_ops = 0).INCLUDED PAPERS IN THIS BLOCK:1. ARC-PUB-2026-EXEC01: Human-First Trust LayerEstablishes non-delegable human agency, legitimacy primitives, and structural trust frameworks across autonomous execution environments. 2. ARC-PUB-2026-EXEC02: Machine-First Execution BoundaryDetailing the pre-actuation deterministic admissibility layer, #![no_std] Rust reference monitors, single-use atomic claims on disk, static SRAM TCM memory bounds (S_max <= 4096B), and sub-12ms temporal clamps (tau_override <= 11.99ms).3. ARC-PUB-2026-EXEC03: Hybrid Epistemic LayerFormalizes cross-boundary consensus, epistemic alignment, and game-theoretic vendor inversion across heterogeneous agent swarms and enterprise cloud rails.CANONICAL ANCHORS & SPECIFICATIONS:• Master Zenodo Hub: https://zenodo.org/communities/arcstone-executive-epistemic-series• Master Security Hash Anchor: A-77-DELTA-SHIELD-LOCKED• Specification Anchor: ARC-SPEC-2026-HWBL-07 (REV-02) / v1.3.1-EXEC• Edge Ingress Gates: contact@arcstoneos.com | gate.arcstoneos.com

The impact of agile practices on communication in software development

The study shows that agile practices improve both informal and formal communication, but indicates that, in larger development situations involving multiple external stakeholders, a mismatch of adequate communication mechanisms can sometimes even hinder the communication.

Introducing Quine: An AI research system designed for the complexity of biology

Biology doesn't operate in silos, and neither should the AI representation of it. Quine is an early-stage research effort to create a multimodal world model of biology. By connecting insights across biological scales and modalities, Quine helps scientists computationally search a space far larger than intuition allows and prioritize hypotheses before they reach the lab. Experimental results provide important feedback, helping researchers sharpen future research directions. The post Introducing Q…
