Conference Description
For the purpose of our teaching, is there an accepted
set of tools and techniques, and a unique and related
collection of theories having a commonly-understood
application, that are associated with the
(inter)discipline of humanities computing? In other
words, is there a humanities computing curriculum, a
curriculum that appropriately treats the role of the
computer, today, in the context of the centuries-old
tradition of the arts and humanities?
What must be considered when designing and implementing
courses that bring the computer to the arts and
humanities, courses in humanities computing? Can such
courses discover and survey the influence of computing
technology, broadly construed, in the arts? Must
courses in humanities computing reflect the tradition
of the computing humanist? Should they embrace all
current applications of computing in the humanities?
Can textual description and markup, cybercultural
studies, text analysis, and (multi)media theory and
practice, &c., co-exist? What are others in the field
bringing to their classrooms and to their programs that
have humanities computing components? Such are the
questions that many face as they and their institutions
formulate, for the first time, new academic courses and
programs that seek to apply computing to established
arts and humanities curricula.
Led by expert practitioners in the field of humanities
computing, through a number of papers, sessions, poster
presentations, and seminars this conference will
address the broad range of issues involved in
integrating computing practice in the teaching of the
arts and humanities -- from developing a single course
in a particular discipline to the development of an
entire curriculum.
Invited Speakers
Invited speakers include
* Willard McCarty (King's College, London)
* John Unsworth (U Virginia)
* Susan Hockey (University College, London)
* Nancy Ide (Vassar College)
Paper, Session, and Seminar Proposals
Paper, session, poster, and seminar proposals that
treat issues relating to the humanities computing
curriculum, describe existing courses and programs,
and/or document experiences relating to implementing
such curricula are invited to be considered for
presentation at this conference.
One page paper or poster proposals, accompanied by a
brief CV, may be sent before June 15 to Ray Siemens, at
siemensr@mala.bc.ca or at the contact points listed
below.
Session or seminar proposals are also very welcome.
These should consist of a description of the session or
seminar topic and a one page proposal and brief CV for
each participant.

Description de la confrence
Dans le domaine des sciences humaines assistes par
ordinateur existe-t-il un consensus suffisant sur ses
techniques, ses outils, et ses thories pour fonder
notre enseignement et, du mme coup, fonder le domaine
en tant qu'(inter)discipline distincte? Autrement dit,
dans le domaine des sciences humaines assistes par
ordinateur est-il possible de concevoir un programme
d'tudes centr sur le rle actuel des ordinateurs et
nanmoins situ au sein des tudes traditionnelles et
sculaires des arts et des sciences humaines?
Quelles considrations s'imposent lors de la conception
et de la ralisation des cours visant appliquer
l'informatique aux domaines des arts et des sciences
humaines? De tels cours peuvent-ils dcouvrir quels
effets a l'informatique, au sens large, sur le domaine
des arts et sciences humaines? Peuvent-ils en dresser
l'inventaire? Ces cours en informatique applique
doivent-ils tenir compte des traditions tablies par
des chercheurs en sciences humaines dj acquis
l'approche informatique? Doivent-ils promouvoir toutes
les applications qui appartiennent au domaine? Les
approches diffrentes, telles que la textologie et
l'tiquetage, les tudes de la cyberculture, l'analyse
textuelle, la thorie et pratique des (multi)mdia,
etc., peuvent-elles co-exister dans un domaine unique?
Qu'est-ce que d'autres chercheurs amnent au domaine
dans la pratique de leurs cours ou de leurs programmes
ayant une dimension informatique? Telles sont les
questions que se posent les chercheurs et leurs
institutions quand ils veulent crer pour la premire
fois des cours dans lesquels on applique la technologie
aux programmes dj tablis en arts et sciences
humaines.
Dans ces communications, sances, prsentations poster
et tables rondes, toutes animes par des chercheurs
experts du domaine des sciences humaines assistes par
ordinateur, nous traiterons l'ventail des
problmatiques associes l'intgration de la pratique
informatise et de l'enseignement des arts et des
sciences humaines -- de la cration d'un simple cours
dans un domaine donn jusqu' la cration d'un
programme d'tudes complet.

organized by the Austrian Society for Cybernetic Studies
in cooperation with
Dept.of Medical Cybernetics and Artificial Intelligence, Univ.of Vienna
and
International Federation for Systems Research

The international support of the European Meetings on Cybernetics and
Systems Research held in Austria in 1972, 1974, 1976, 1978, 1980, 1982,
1984, 1986, 1988, 1990, 1992, 1994, 1996, 1998 and 2000 (when 500 scientists
from more than 40 countries from all continents, except the
Antarctica, met to present, hear and discuss 134 papers) encouraged the Council
of the Austrian Society for Cybernetic Studies (VSGK) to organize a similar
meeting in 2002 to keep pace with continued rapid developments in related
fields.
