Abstract
DS EV Battery Enhancement — Version 7.1 Release Notes Motivation This update focuses on improving reliability and correctness in the diagnostics pipeline. The goal is to prevent misbehavior on newer Python versions, reject edge‑case inputs cleanly, and ensure malformed configuration files fail fast with clear messaging instead of ambiguous exceptions. Changes & Improvements Escaped percent signs in --soh and --soc help text to prevent formatting errors on newer Python builds (scripts/diagnostics.py). Added math import and non‑finite input rejection so NaN/inf values cannot bypass range checks for SOH, temperature, voltage, or SOC (scripts/diagnostics.py). Improved JSON config handling — vehicle_profiles.json and safety_thresholds.json now fail cleanly with clear logged errors when parsing fails (scripts/diagnostics.py). Added regression tests covering diagnostics --help rendering and rejection of non‑finite inputs (tests/test_hardened_pipeline.py). Testing Summary Unit tests: python3 -m pytest -q tests/test_hardened_pipeline.py -k 'not installer_safety_gating' Result: 7 passed, 1 skipped, 1 deselected. Static checks: python3 -m compileall -q scripts tests Result: succeeded. Verified diagnostics help output: python3 scripts/diagnostics.py --help Result: percent‑escaped help text renders correctly. Full test attempt: python3 -m pytest -q Result: installer‑related test could not complete due to environment blocking GitHub access (HTTP 403) during CMake/FetchContent clone of pybind11; all other tests passed where prerequisites were available. git diff --check Result: clean.
This publication proposes a definition and a classification of agile software development approaches and analyses ten software development methods that can be characterized as being "agile" against the defined criterion.

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.

The results show that the embedded industry has been able to apply agile methods in its development processes and that the appreciation of the agile methods and their individual practices appears to increase once adopted and applied in practice.

“X-Hinges” helps design and 3D print items like lamps and gloves with an interactive twist: automatically embedded sensors that perceive and adaptively respond to human contact.
StudentSim is a research system for evaluating and improving AI tutoring tools before they are tested with learners. It models how individuals may engage with tutors, giving feedback to improve tutor performance across subjects like chess, writing, and mathematics. The post Simulating student learning for better AI tutoring appeared first on Microsoft Research.
