Senior🎓
Top SchoolMatthew Saltzman is a veteran operations researcher and computational optimization expert with 24+ years bridging academic research, teaching, and open-source software leadership. As Associate Professor at Clemson and President of the COIN-OR Foundation since 2004, he has driven development and publication of widely used optimization tools while advancing algorithmic research in integer programming, sparse linear systems, and parallel algorithms. His career blends deep theoretical work—polyhedral theory and combinatorial optimization—with practical software delivery for business and public systems. A longtime INFORMS volunteer and editor, he pairs scholarly rigor from a Carnegie Mellon PhD with hands-on systems programming roots dating to the late 1970s. Notably, he cultivates community impact by translating advanced optimization methods into accessible open-source code that powers both research and real-world operations.
