Self-Organising Digital Circuits

by

arXiv:2608.02606v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Fault tolerance in classical computing has traditionally relied on static strategies like hardware redundancy and error-correcting codes. Biological systems, in contrast, exhibit adaptive plasticity, maintaining function through dynamic re-organisation around damage. Inspired by this principle, we introduce Self-Organising Digital Circuits,…

Fail-Fast, Restart-Smart: Early Failure Prediction and Restart for SWE Agentic Tasks

by

arXiv:2608.03222v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Software engineering (SWE) agents resolve repository-level issues through long trajectories that grow increasingly expensive as context accumulates. Failed runs tend to be longer and exhibit redundant exploration or looping, suggesting that some failures may be detectable before completion. Early termination,…
