Call for contributions to the HaPoC symposium proposal
The history of
information and communication technologies (ICTs), despite its
approximately 70 years, has already shown a rich accumulated experience
coming from the most diversified initiatives, efforts and
pioneering projects.
Fully incorporated into
reality, to the point of being considered ubiquitous, ICTs can be
considered mature enough to bring about a balance that seeks to account
for its past and its origins. A more extensive
study of their history surely contributes to establish a valuable
research field and to consolidate an international community of
historians and philosophers of ICTs, discussing and framing propositions
that can help to inspire and produce future developments.
The DHST/DLMPST Commission for the History and Philosophy of Computing is an Inter-divisionary Commission of the Division
for the History of Science and Technology and the Division of Logic, Methodology and Philosophy of Science and Technology.
As a DHST/DLMPST
commission, HaPoC will organize a Symposium at the 25th International
Congress of History of Science, and Technology (ICHST), which will be
held in the city of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, from 23
to 29 July 2017, with the general theme “Science, Technology and
Medicine between the Global and the Local”.
The present Call for
Contributions is an opportunity to evaluate papers related to the theme
“The Ubiquity of Computing: historical and philosophical issues” to
include them into the Proposal to be submitted
to the ICHST.
Contributions from the
most diverse areas of knowledge and professional practices are welcome,
since the HaPoC Symposium is an interdisciplinary event, dedicated not
only to the history of computation artifacts
and informational processes, but also to the relationship between
computer science and politics, economy, labour, university, education,
social change, business, environment, public policies, science and
technology, culture, arts and the humanities.
List of topics of interest (not exhaustive):
• The beginnings of computer science and technology.
• The links from the beginnings of computer science with mathematics and the beginnings of digital electronics.
• History and philosophy of computing issues.
• Logical foundations of computer science.
• The uses of computer in its early days and its process of integration to the academic field, the state and the productive sectors.
• The development of professional careers in academic computing.
• The development of research in computer science: its groups, its research institutions and their production.
• The development of information technologies in public and private institutions.
• The regional and international collaboration.
• National policies of informatics. The (lack of) contribution of state policies in national development.
• The development of communications and its historical, political and social links.
• Information technologies, culture and arts.
• The establishment of academic networks and their influence.
• The evolution of the Internet and the participation of institutions in this process.
• The issue of local cultures facing the globalized world of ICTs.
• The biographies of members and pioneers of ICTs projects .
• The existence, preservation and socialization of the heritage constituted by artifacts, press publications, documents and technologies used in different moments of the history of computing.

testimonials, documented sources, references, and discussion
of related bibliography.
