Our software framework, Proteus, treats adaptation as a first-class object, enabling rapid development of robust, adaptive applications. Proteus developers specify their programs' intent and adaptable components (or knobs). A control-theoretic runtime continually monitors the running application, adjusting knobs so that the specified intent is met.
