I am happy to start my visiting appointment at the Technical University of Munich in this academic year. The TUM Global Visiting Professorship is a prestigious award and I am grateful to Professor Dr. Florian Matthes who directs TUM's Chair of Software Engineering for Business Information Systems who has supported this shared application.

My research with Ms Gloria Bondel at the Chair will look into the theoretical underpinnings of formation processes of large-scale digital infrastructures. We intend to develop explanatory models for how infrastructural constellations dynamically emerge and evolve on basis of interfacing technologies. The contribution to research specifically concerns the theoretical conceptualization of the architectural patterns, micro-structures and morphological processes that expedite the generative use of enabling technologies such as APIs in infrastructures.
