Quantum measurement resolves a superposition into a definite outcome by correlating it with an observer's memory -- a reality register. While the global quantum state remains coherent, the observer's local reality becomes singular and…
Object caches underpin cloud and edge services, but production workloads are heterogeneous, nonstationary, and throughput-constrained. Recent simple non-ML policies such as SIEVE and S3-FIFO set a strong baseline, so any learned method must…
