I am a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Dependability of Software-intensive Systems Group headed by Prof. Dr. Ralf Reussner at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Germany. I completed my Ph.D. studies in computer science major software engineering at the LIT Cyber-Physical Systems Lab at Johannes Kepler University Linz in 2023. See my CV for details.
My research interests include software product lines, configurable systems, variability modeling, model transformations, software evolution, software consistency, and software development for Cyber-Physical Systems.
Currently I am affiliated with the CRC/SFB 1608 »Convide« where I research on the Consistency in the View-Based Development of Cyber-Physical Systems. Within the project, I coordinate the cross-project working group on “Notions and Definitions of Consistency”.

I do not have explicit office hours. Please contact me via e-mail (kevin–dot–feichtinger–at–kit–dot–edu) if you have questions or inquiries about classes and thesis projects. We will arrange an appointment.
Projects
Integrated Framework for Multidisciplinary Engineering for CPPS
- Oct 2026 to Jun 2027
- Partners: University of Stuttgart
- Staff: 2+ Student assistents
- The INTERFACE4CPPS aims at developing a full integration framework which, while allowing engineering disciplines to keep their domain-specific tools, artifacts, and work processes, provides means to integrate knowledge across the domains.
