Waltraud Huyer is a faculty member at the Department of Mathematics, Faculty of Mathematics, University of Vienna. Her office is located in Room 04.120 at Oskar-Morgenstern-Platz 1, 1090 Wien, Austria. She actively teaches courses including Numerical Mathematics and Introduction to Mathematics for both undergraduate and secondary school teacher accreditation programs. Her research spans Global and Local Optimization , Numerical Analysis , Data Analysis , Protein Folding , and Population Dynamics with structured populations. She develops advanced optimization algorithms like SNOBFIT for noisy environments and MINQ8 for quadratic programming, while applying mathematical techniques to biological problems such as protein structure prediction and age-structured population modeling. Analysis of her 14 most recent publications (1994-2018) reveals three dominant research thrusts: (1) Algorithmic development in global optimization (7 papers), including multilevel coordinate search and exact penalty functions; (2) Mathematical biology applications (5 papers), particularly in protein folding and population dynamics; (3) Computational verification methods (2 papers) for linear systems and feasibility problems. Her work consistently bridges theoretical mathematics with practical computational implementations. Her scientific contributions include widely-used algorithms implemented in MATLAB, such as the MCS global optimizer and SNOBFIT for noisy optimization, available through the University of Vienna's software repository. Huyer supervises teaching activities for foundational mathematics courses, emphasizing practical computational skills using MATLAB for numerical analysis and regression problems. Her teaching materials include detailed exercise sets with structured assessment criteria requiring both theoretical understanding and programming implementation.
