Integrating Pair Programming as a Work Practice
Context: Pair programming (PP) is more relevant than ever. As modern systems grow in complexity, knowledge sharing and collaboration across teams have become essential. However, despite well-documented benefits of PP, its adoption remains inconsistent across software teams. Objective: This study aims to understand the factors that facilitate or hinder team members' adoption as well as lasting engagement in PP. Method: We have conducted an exploratory single-case study in a mature agile company …

Multi-goal-oriented anisotropic error control and mesh adaptivity for time-dependent convection-dominated problems
In this work, we present an anisotropic multi-goal error control based on the Dual Weighted Residual (DWR) method for time-dependent convection-diffusion-reaction (CDR) equations. This multi-goal oriented approach allows for an accurate and efficient error control with regard to several quantities of interest simultaneously. Using anisotropic interpolation and restriction operators, we obtain elementwise error indicators in space and time, where the spatial indicators are additionally separated…

Right and Wrong Ansätze for Nonlinear Waves in Stochastic PDEs
I investigate the possibility that explicit solutions of stochastic reaction-diffusion equations can be found by multiplying the deterministic travelling waves with a stochastic exponent. This approach has become widespread in the literature in recent years. I will conclude that this approach is, in general, not a valid Ansatz and only works in the case of NLS-type equations in the Stratonovich interpretation.

Modeling Urban Air Quality Using Taxis as Sensors
Monitoring urban air quality with high spatiotemporal resolution continues to pose significant challenges. We investigate the use of taxi fleets as mobile sensing platforms, analyzing over 100 million PM2.5 readings from more than 3,000 vehicles across six major U.S. cities during one year. Our findings show that taxis provide fine-grained, street-level air quality insights while ensuring city-wide coverage. We further explore urban air quality modeling using traffic congestion, built environme…
