NOTES / EXPLAINING THE WORK

Technical ideas, made inspectable.

Short field notes connected directly to the systems and experiments that produced them.

01

ALGORITHM ENGINEERING

Exact versus heuristic search in practice

A field note on what challenge instances reveal about branching, reductions and runtime trade-offs.

02

PERFORMANCE

Why continuous keys should be stored as ranges

A compact explanation of the memory idea behind ranged-key caching and adaptive replacement.

03

RETRIEVAL

Dense, diverse or intent-enriched?

How three retrieval strategies change the context delivered to a generation system.
