Abstract
Code and results of the article Height Area Graphs for Automated Preliminary Road Alignment in Hilly Terrain (in preparation). The software (code, tests and build scripts) and the data (results, tables and figures) were written and produced solely by Ioana-Alexandra Șomîtcă and Ștefan-Eduard Deaconu, who hold all copyright in them. Rozalia-Melania Boitor and Mihai-Liviu Dragomir are co-authors of the forthcoming article only: they contributed road-engineering domain expertise to the article (what to measure, what to test, and what to include in or exclude from the article). They made no contribution to the software or the data and hold no copyright in this record. Code: MIT. Results, tables and figures: CC BY 4.0. The Idrija Fault LiDAR DEM is not included (https://doi.org/10.5069/G9QC01Q2).
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.

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.
