[Bill Aspray]

I believe they are negotiating with a journal to publish the  
proceedings.  No final word yet.

>>  From 7-10 November 2011 the Centre for Logic and Philosophy of

>> organizes an International Conference on the History and Philosophy  
>> of
>> Computing.
>>
>>
>> AIMS AND SCOPE
>>
>> The computing sciences collect the most diverse complex of experts:
>> philosophers, logicians, historians, mathematicians, computer
>> scientists, programmers, engineers. The number of involved subjects
>> grows accordingly: from foundational issues to their applications;  
>> from
>> philosophical questions to problems of realizability and design of
>> specifications; from theoretical studies of computational barriers to
>> the relevance of machines for educational purposes.
>>
>> A historical awareness of the evolution of computing not only helps  
>> to
>> clarify the complex structure of the computing sciences, but it also
>> provides an insight in what computing was, is and maybe could be in  
>> the
>> future. Philosophy, on the other hand, helps to tackle some of the
>> fundamental problems of computing, going from the limits of the
>> ?mathematicizing power of homo sapiens?to the design of feasible and
>> concrete models of interactive processes.
>>
>> The aim of this conference is to bring together these two streams: we
>> are strongly convinced that an interplay between the researchers  
>> with an
>> interest in the history and philosophy of computing can crucially  
>> add to
>> the maturity of the field.
>>
>> We plan to have up to 30 contributed papers to be presented at the
>> conference. We welcome contributions from logicians and  
>> philosophers or
>> historians of science as well as from philosophically and/or
>> historically aware computer scientists and mathematicians.
>>
>> Topics of the conference include:
>>
>> The birth, evolution and future of computation
>>       *
>>         Philosophical, foundational and practical issues of
>> computability in logic, mathematics and computer science
>>       *
>>         Computation in the sciences
