I was born in Klagenfurt (Austria). I studied computer science ("Angewandte Informatik") at the Universität Klagenfurt, spent a semester at the University of Northern Iowa. For the compulsory internship and Diplomarbeit I worked at the IBM Research Laboratory in Zurich. After two years as a teaching and research assistant at the Chair of Software Engineering, I joined the group of Thomas Gross in March 2004. I have defended my PhD thesis with the title Dynamic Updating of Object-Oriented Software Systems Based on Aspects in May 2009.
Especially server applications require continuous uptime while including the latest fixes for bugs and security holes. There are several approaches to deal with software updating. The traditional way is to stop an application and restart it with the newly installed binaries. This results in unwanted downtime.
An interesting approach to update an application is to update it at run-time without terminating its execution. In our project, we investigate the possibilities and limitations of an approach based on aspects to update an application "on-the-fly".
