Abstract
Despite the skeletal muscles being relaxed by the action of the sleep center, the phenomenon of “REM sleep,” in which only the eyeballs move violently, has been interpreted in conventional neuroscience as the leakage of random activity accompanying memory consolidation, etc. However, overcoming the metaphor of viewing life as a “computer” that computes specific algorithms, in the paradigm that considers the biological system as an “in vivo analog quantum synchronizer (phase synchronizer: Bio-QPU),” this phenomenon can be reformulated as an extremely precisely designed analog resonance system-like “verification (Verify) process” and an “active phase noise rejection mechanism.” In this paper, to confirm whether the absolute coordinates reset during non-REM sleep (phase synchronization with environmental waves based on LUCA’s theorem) have been correctly calibrated (resonance adjusted), the autonomous analog tuner (Glial OS) functionalizes decoherence, which is an error in artificial machines, and uses “selective decoherence” that selectively granulates only specific dimensions and maintains rich background information as waves. We model the mechanism by which the visual edge Bio-QPU performs physical tracking on the waves of virtual space (dreams) generated using this mechanism. Furthermore, we elucidate the hierarchical phase tuning mechanism and present a verifiable hypothesis independent of the computer metaphor, detailing the physical mechanism by which imperfections in this synchronization mechanism and failures in phase noise management lead directly to jet lag, sleep paralysis, and cellular carcinogenesis (destructive decoherence from the life code).
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 indicate that software engineering work practices are chosen opportunistically, adapted and configured to provide value under the constrains imposed by the startup context.

The perception of the impact of agile methods is predominantly positive, and several challenge areas were discovered, but based on this study, agile methods are here to stay.
