The space and motion of communicating agents (2008) [pdf]

The author proposes a model for ubiquitous systems based on a discrete space involving concepts of agent, locality, and connectivity, which can be used to represent both physical and virtual entities. The model, called bigraphs, is a rigorous theory that can be used as a design tool and a programming language to build ubiquitous systems, and it has been shown to unify existing theories of ...

Poking holes into bytecode with peephole optimisations

Purple-garden's peephole optimisations merge operators, rewrite redundant operations, and remove instructions to reduce startup time. This single-pass optimisation is a fallback for the previous optimisation pipeline and handles constant binary operations and overflow silently.

https://i0.wp.com/economicsfromthetopdown.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/gravity_cover-2.png?resize=930%2C450&ssl=1
The history of science suggests that current theories are often abandoned, and the field of astrophysics is in a slow-burning scientific revolution. The dark-matter paradigm, which assumes missing mass, may be a historical accident created by limited observations, and alternative theories like Milgromian dynamics are gaining evidence.
