Primes

• Last-Mile Failure
  • In software distribution, releases ship to CDNs while whether the patch reaches a device depends on auto-update, connectivity, and version skew.

    This sourceEmpirically measures the gap between when patches are released and when they reach devices, showing version skew and the manufacturer/carrier/connectivity chain gate whether a device actually updates.

Verification

Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.

Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
