Venue: University of Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne, ENS from 2pm to 5pm
First session of Axis1 ‘Interactions between logic, computation and linguistics’ of the seminar ‘Reflections on computation, information and programming processes’. Wednesday 27 January at 2pm, IHPST, 13 rue du Four (2nf floor), University of Pars 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne, ENS, with the participation of David Nofre and Alain Lecomte.
We are delighted to announce the seminar: ‘Reflections on computation, information and programming processes’. This seminar is the result of a joint project between various research teams. Its aim is the historical-philosophical study of computer science and its practices.
The seminar is centred on two lines of research, each of which gives rise to a series of specific sessions. The first, entitled ‘Interactions between logic, computation and linguistics: history and philosophy’, analyses computer science as a point of connection between different disciplines, particularly logic, mathematics and linguistics. The second, entitled ‘The practice of computer science: history and philosophy’, studies computer science as a discipline in its own right, attempting in particular to identify its own field of study by analysing its practices.
Leaders: Liesbeth De Mol (CNRS/STL, University of Lille 3), Pierre Mounier-Kuhn (CNRS, Centre Roland Mousnier, University Paris Sorbonne), Alberto Naibo (IHPST, University Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne, CNRS, ENS), Maël Pegny (IHPST, University Pris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne, CNRS, ENS), Shahid Rahman (STL, University of Lille 3), Mark van Atten (CNRS/SND, University Paris-Sorbonne).
The teams involved in the seminar are:
the two axes are:
AXIS 1: INTERACTIONS BETWEEN LOGIC, COMPUTATION AND LINGUISTICS
AXIS 2: HISTORY AND PHILOSOPHY OF COMPUTER SCIENCE
