Abstract
A reproducible audit package for evaluating environmental prediction-interval claims across deployment groups, split designs, finite-output behavior, and target-information budgets. Archive version 0.1.1 adds the Forest Ecosystems evidence extension v2. The software core remains version 0.1.0. The evidence bundle contains 194 payload files and three archive metadata files. It adds forest-focused Figures 1 and 5, plotted-value tables and an independent forest revision validator. Figure 4 is redrawn with separate numeric columns to remove mark-label overlap; the frozen scientific inputs and model predictions are unchanged. No models were refitted. Earlier EMS and Beijing evidence is retained for provenance but is not used in the forest manuscript. The archive supports reconstruction of metrics from saved prediction ledgers and software checks; complete raw-data extraction and model refitting require the original provider data. Some inherited NEON prediction ledgers contain public plot-centre coordinates, unchanged from the original archive. Raw provider tables, imagery, feature caches, credentials and private FIA coordinates are excluded. The FE extension passed the 45-test software suite, the 151-check forest synthesis validation and reconstruction of 384 model-by-state cells. Figure 4 also reconciles 24 macro values and records 88 plotted-value rows.
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.

AI agents can generate code at a scale that’s hard for humans to review line-by-line. PDD Kit helps ensure the code is doing what the developer intended by creating formal specifications and testing against them. It converts developer intent into a Verus specification, proves AI-generated code meets it for every input, and uses tests where proofs aren't practical. Developers review intent, not every line.
