SUMMARY:Conference HaPoC 2025
DESCRIPTION:The KHK c:o/re is proud to host the 8th edition of the international conference on History and Philosophy of Computing (HaPoC)\, taking place every two years under the auspices of the DHST/DLMPST Interdivisional Commission on History and Philosophy of Computing (www.hapoc.org). \nInitiated in 2011\, the conference has the aim of building an interdisciplinary community and environment to address the various facets of computing and computing  technology\, bringing together scholars from a broad range of disciplines to discuss the past and present cultures\, practices and images of computing. \nFind the program on our website or as a pdf document. \n\nKeynote Speakers:\nLiesbeth De Mol\, CNRS/Université de Lille\, France\nRobin K. Hill\, University of Wyoming\, US\nAlexandre Hocquet\, Université de Lorraine\, France \nProgram Committee:\nArianna Borrelli\, TU Berlin and RWTH Aachen\, Germany\nJianqing Chen\, Washington University at Saint Louis\, US\nJack Copeland\, University of Canterbury\, Christchurch\, NZ\nBeatrice Fazi\,  University of Sussex\, UK\nGabriele Gramelsberger\, RWTH Aachen\, Germany\nThomas Haigh\, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee\, US\nAndrei Korbut\, CAIS Center for Advanced Internet Studies Bochum\, Germany\nAlfred Nordmann\, TU Darmstadt\, Germany\nMitsuhiro Okada\, Keio University\, Tokyo\, Japan\nBen Peters\, University of Tulsa\, US\nMate Szabo\, University of Southern California\, US \nLocal Organising Committee at RWTH Aachen University:\nGabriele Gramelsberger (philosophy of science)\nStefan Böschen (sociology of science)\nDawid Kasprowicz (philosophy of science)\nPhillip Roth (science and technology studies)\nSaskia Nagel (ethics of science)\nTorsten Voigt (science and technology studies)

SUMMARY:A Portrait of the Scientist as a User - Alexandre Hocquet (Nancy)
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nWhy are computational chemists so peculiar ? The history of their relationship with software brings an interesting case study to understand how software may shape scientific activity. We present four key moments in this history — from 1962 to 2024 — to illustrate how visions of openness and user agency have evolved. These include a software-sharing initiative\, controversies over licensing and user management\, and debates about the Alphafold AI tool. \nThe multifaceted category of ‘users’ is key to understand discourses about opennness. We identify patterns of evolution in the relationship between software packages and the computational chemistry community. Throughout our narration\, the notion of ‘users’ becomes more complex\, in line with the commodification of programs into packages and the increasing complexity of the packages themselves. \nThrough the dyanmics of sharing\, the legal consequences of software licenses\, Non-Discolsure Agreements\, and End-User Licence Agreements\, we point out that the overall resulting pattern of evolution amounts to a kind of dispossession of scientists’ agency in their relationships with their tools. We propose to view the history of computational chemistry as the formation of a particular ‘repertoire’ where software is central and where the issue of the forms of collaboration and interaction among practitioners implies visions of openness of software development\, circulation\, maintenance and uses\, all in friction. \nThis lecture is part of the 8th HaPoC Conference 2025 in Aachen. \nIf you would like to attend\, please register with events@khk.rwth-aachen.de.
