Finding the Optimum Level of Simplification: The Case of Teaching about Heat and Temperature.
TL;DR: In this article, it is argued that, whilst simplification is necessary, a point will be reached where the logical structure of the subject is compromised and it is suggested that recent recommendations in Physics Education about teaching heat and temperature may have reached such a point.

Decentralised online charging scheduling for large populations of electric vehicles: a cyber-physical system approach
TL;DR: This paper model an EV charging system as a cyber-physical system, and design a decentralised online EV charging scheduling algorithm for large populations of EVs, where the EVs can be highly heterogeneous and may join the charging system dynamically.
