It is with pleasure that we announce the seminar: “Reflections on the processes of calculation, information and programming”. This seminar is the result of a joint project between different research teams. Its object is the historico-philosophical study of computer science and its practices.
The seminar is centred around two research axes, each of which gives rise to a series of specific sessions. The first axis, entitled “Interactions between logic, calculus and linguistics: history and philosophy”, analyses computer science as a place of connection between different disciplines, particularly logic, mathematics and linguistics. The second axis, entitled “Informatics practice: history and philosophy”, studies computer science as a full discipline, trying to identify its own field of study by analysing its practices.
Responsible: Liesbeth De Mol (CNRS/STL, Université de Lille 3), Pierre Mounier-Kuhn (CNRS, Centre Roland Mousnier, Université Paris Sorbonne), Alberto Naibo (IHPST, Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne, CNRS, ENS), Maël Pegny (IHPST, Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne, CNRS, ENS), Shahid Rahman (STL, Université de Lille 3), Mark van Atten (CNRS/SND, Université Paris-Sorbonne).
