About me
I’m Nicolas Sebastian Schuler, a PhD student at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) in Germany. I work in the research group for Self-adaptive Software-intensive Systems (SASIS), which is part of KASTEL – the Institute of Information Security and Dependability.
I study how software can adapt to changing conditions while remaining dependable. My doctoral research treats the points where learned components hand results to planners, monitors, and policies as architectural seams: specified, checked at runtime, and able to evolve. You can read about my research questions and selected papers.
