Susanne Boll is a Professor for Media Informatics and Multimedia Systems in the Department of Computing Science at the University of Oldenburg, Germany. [1] and is a member of the board at the research institute OFFIS. She is a member of SIGMM [2] and SIGCHI [3] of the ACM as well as the German Informatics Society GI. She founded and directs the HCI Lab at the University of Oldenburg and OFFIS. [4]
Her research is positioned at the intersection of human-computer interaction (HCI) and interactive multimedia. [1]
Boll graduated in Computer Science from the Department of Computer Science of the Technische Universität Darmstadt, Germany. [1] She received her PhD in 2001 from the Vienna University of Technology. [1] Core elements of her dissertation in the field multimedia document modeling were published in the IEEE Transactions on Knowledge and Data Engineering 2001. [5]
Boll's early works on semantic multimedia models have been published in the IEEE Transactions on Knowledge and Data Engineering in 2001. She has developed her research area from multimedia models into interactive multimedia systems and interactive systems. She is working on novel topics in the field of multimedia and human computer interaction. She organized the first ACM Workshop on Social Media at ACM Multimedia in 2009 [6] and the first Workshop on Multimedia for Personal Health and Health Care at ACM Multimedia in 2017. [7]
Boll is a member of both ACM SIGMM and ACM SIGCHI. Boll has been a Member at Large in the Executive Committee of SIGMM for several years. [8] Since August she is SIGCHI Vice president for Conferences. She has been serving as Program Co-Chair of ACM Multimedia in 2017, as General Co-Chair of ACM Multimedia, as Program Chair of MobileHCI in 2019, and as General Chair of MobileHCI in 2020. [9] She is a member of the SC of the ACM MobileHCI Conference and SC Chair of the Steering Committee of the ACM AutomotiveUI Conference. [10]
Boll was the organizer of several international retreats at Dagstuhl Castle to which she invited researchers to join her in discussing trends, challenges and future directions in multimedia, [11] understanding social media, [12] interactive systems for personal health [13] and automotive user interfaces in times of automation. [14]
In 2019, Boll was appointed Director of Diversity and Outreach in the Executive Committee of ACM SIGMM. [15] She initiated the 25 in 25 strategy in which ACM SIGMM wants to overcome its relatively low representation of women in all activities and has decided on 10 actions to achieve at least 25% female participation at all levels and for all roles on all levels by 2025. [16]
Boll is also involved in Plattform Lernende Systeme - Germany's Platform for Artificial Intelligence. There she leads the working group Innovation, Business Models and Processes and advises politics as well as society on current AI topics. [17]
Boll was named a Fellow of the German Informatics Society in October 2020. [18] She was named a Distinguished Member of the ACM in 2019, [19] the only European woman among the year's 62 inductees. [20] She is an elected member of acatech, The National Academy of Science and Engineering. [21] She was elected a member (Fachkollegiatin) of the German Science Foundation (DFG) board of reviewers in Computer Science in 2016 and re-elected for four more years in 2020. She is also the spokesperson of its board since 2020. [22]
