Why is this work in the frame?

A frame that forgets how it found something cannot be audited. These are the routes that admitted this work.

Canadian affiliationAn author listed a Canadian institution. This is the only route the usual frame has.

Full frame distilled prediction

Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Abstract

The field of software economics seeks to develop technical theories, guidelines, and practices of software development based on sound, established, and emerging models of value and value-creation---adapted to the domain of software development as necessary. The premise of the field is that software development is an ongoing investment activity---in which developers and managers continually make investment decisions requiring the expenditure of valuable resources, such as time, talent, and money. The overriding aim of this activity is to maximize the value added subject to an equitable distribution among the participating stakeholders. The goal of the tutorial is to expose the audience to this line of thinking and introduce the tools pertinent to its pursuit. The tutorial is designed to be self-contained and will cover concepts from introductory to advanced. Both practitioners and researchers with an interest in the impact of value considerations in software decision-making will benefit from attending it.This tutorial is offered in conjunction with the Fourth International Workshop on Economics-Driven Software Engineering Research (EDSER-4). The tutorial is meant in part to enable those who would like to participate in the workshop, but who might not possess the requisite background, to come up to speed.
