Martina Seidl

Martina Seidl is a researcher and principle investigator at TU Wien's Institut für Softwaretechnik und Interaktive Systeme (E188). Her main affiliation is within the Faculty of Informatics. She leads the FAME Project (Formalizing and Managing Evolution in Model-Driven Engineering), focusing on advancing formal methods in software engineering.

Her research interests include formal verification techniques, SAT/QBF solving algorithms, model-driven engineering, and automated reasoning. She has contributed to advancements in quantified Boolean formula (QBF) solving, parallel computing methodologies for logical problems, and formal methods in software model analysis.

Her work spans theoretical computer science and practical applications in automated theorem proving and model checking. Notable contributions include expansion-based QBF solving approaches, parallel solving frameworks, and feature-based classifications of formal verification techniques.

Seidl co-organized the QBF Gallery initiative, which curates benchmark suites for quantified Boolean formula competitions. She has also published extensively on clause redundancy optimization, blocked clause analysis, and the integration of formal methods in educational contexts like UML@Classroom.
