The objective of this study is to determine which factors influence the teaching and learning process of programming related subjects. Methodologically, a data collection instrument was applied using a purposive non-probability sampling technique to a sample of 39 students in a face-to-face and online learning environment. Data processing was performed using artificial intelligence tools. The results reveal that 85% of the subjects show positive aptitudes driven by vocation and a cognitive exhaustion index of 72%. This finding highlights that mental overload makes vocational interest insufficient, since abstract thinking is necessary for the coding process. The contribution of this work is to offer a diagnostic tool for the creation of pedagogical strategies that improve academic performance by mitigating mental exhaustion without affecting student motivation.
Investigating how experienced developers use agents in building software, including their motivations, strategies, task suitability, and sentiments finds that while experienced developers value agents as a productivity boost, they retain their agency in software design and implementation out of insistence on fundamental software quality attributes.
An adaptive surrogate modeling method for problems with very high-dimensional spatio-temporal outputs is developed that combines exploration and exploitation to improve the surrogate model accuracy with the fewest possible runs of the expensive physics-based model.

This review provides a systematic literature review of LLM-based Verilog code generation, analyzing 102 papers (70 published and 32 high-quality preprints) from SE, AI, and EDA venues and outlines a roadmap highlighting potential opportunities in LLM-assisted hardware design.
This work introduces Behavior-Outcome Freedom (F), a pre-synthesis diagnostic of signed behavior-outcome rank mismatch, and formalizes its candidate-conditional role through Signed Anchor-Rank Transfer, which preserves validated capability resources, removes runtime orchestration, and conditionally inherits pipeline guidance using a calibrated rule over F.
