Festveranstaltung zum Fakultätsjubiläum

Unsere Fakultät feiert heuer 50 Jahre Lehrprogramm im Bereich Informatik an der Universität Wien und gleichzeitig auch ihr 20-jähriges Bestehen. Aus diesem Grund lädt die Fakultät für Informatik am 4. Oktober 2024 als letzten Programmpunkt dieses Jubiläumsjahres zu einer Festveranstaltung mit Vorträgen von u.a. Yvonne Rogers (University College London) und Daniel A. Reed (University of Utah, Microsoft). Sie sind herzlich eingeladen, an der Festveranstaltung teilzunehmen!

Die Feierlichkeiten finden im Großen Festsaal der Universität Wien statt, Beginn ist um 14:00 Uhr. Eine Anmeldung ist verpflichtend.

Vortragende

Yvonne Rogers

Yvonne Rogers is the director of the Interaction Centre at UCL (UCLIC), deputy head of department for Computer Science and a Professor of Interaction Design. Her research is in the areas of human-computer interaction, ubiquitous computing and interaction design. Her current research focuses on how human behaviour is being impacted and augmented through the design and adoption of new technologies. She is particularly interested in how human-centred applications of AI can be developed that benefit society. Central to her work is a critical stance towards how visions, theories and frameworks shape the fields of HCI, cognitive science and ubiquitous computing. She been instrumental in promulgating new theories (e.g., external cognition), alternative methodologies (e.g., in the wild studies) and far-reaching research agendas (e.g., “Being Human” manifesto) and has pioneered an approach to innovation and ubiquitous learning. In 2022 she was awarded the ACM SIGCHI Lifetime Achievement Research Award and was elected as a fellow of the Royal Society. Other awards include the Royal Society Robin Milner Medal (2021) and a MRC Suffrage and Science Award (2020) for being one of the leading women in 'mathematics & computing’. She was also awarded a chair of excellence from the University of Bremen (2020-2025).

Daniel A. Reed is Presidential Professor (emeritus) in Computer and Computational Science at the University of Utah, where he previously served as Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs (Provost). He has served in a variety of senior academic and industry roles, including as Vice President for Research at the University of Iowa and as Microsoft’s Corporate Vice President for Technology Policy and Extreme Computing. While at Microsoft, he helped shape Microsoft's long-term vision for technology innovations in cloud computing and the company's policy engagement with governments and institutions worldwide.  Before joining Microsoft, he was the founding director of the Renaissance Computing Institute (RENCI) at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and both Head of the Department of Computer Science and Director of the National Center for Supercomputing Applications (NCSA) at the University of Illinois.

Dr. Reed just completed two years as chair of the U.S. National Science Board (NSB), which provides oversight for the U.S. National Science Foundation, and serves as a member of the Internet2 Board of Trustees. For a decade, he also served as chair of the U.S. Department of Energy’s Advanced Science Computing Advisory Committee. Dr. Reed has also served as a member of the U.S. President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST) and the U.S. President’s Information Technology Advisory Committee (PITAC). He is the past chair of the Board of Directors of the Computing Research Association (CRA), which represents PhD-granting computer science departments in North America. As chair of CRA, he was one of the co-founders of the Computing Community Consortium (CCC), responsible for envisioning new ideas on computing research.

Dr. Reed is a Fellow of the ACM, the IEEE, and the AAAS. He received his B.S. from Missouri University of Science and Technology and his M.S. and Ph.D. from Purdue University, all in computer science.
