Welcome to SASIS
The Self-adaptive Software-intensive Systems (SASIS) research group at KASTEL is headed by Prof. Dr. Raffaela Mirandola. The group is part of the Software Design and Quality.
The main research interests of the Self-adaptive Software-intensive Systems group are:
-
Software quality requirements modeling, analysis, and verification
-
Formal methods for (self-)adaptive dependable IT systems
-
Model-driven software engineering and the application of the theories, approaches, and techniques specific to the above research areas to service-oriented and component-based systems, adaptive systems, mobile systems, and cloud computing.
The research has been funded by several national and international projects.
The International Conference on Software Architecture (ICSA) supported by IEEE, is the premier event for software architecture since 1998. Known for its vibrant and collaborative atmosphere, ICSA unites researchers, practitioners, and educators to shape the future of software architecture. ICSA 2026 will take place in Amsterdam, Netherlands between the 22nd and the 26th of June 2026. Check out more about the history and past series of ICSA.
Check the ICSA 2026 webpage for the details.

The IEEE/ACM International Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE) is the premier software engineering conference. It will be held April 12-18 2026, in Rio de Janeiro. Core conference days will be Wednesday, April 15, to Friday, April 17. Wednesday, April 30, to Friday, May 2.
2026 marks the 51th anniversary of ICSE, which was first held in 1975!
ICSE provides a forum where researchers, practitioners, and educators gather together to present and discuss research results, innovations, trends, experiences, and issues in the field of software engineering.
Check the ICSE 2026 webpage for the program overview (and especially the keynotes, workshops, co-located conferences, and tutorials), information about registration, travel authorization, hotels, and travel to Ottawa.
