(Does mathematics provide a model for the philosophy of computer science?) Idealism and Lisp and Perl.

We argue that in computer science, programming languages is one area wherethe question of epistemological idealism may arise : we propose that Lisp can beconsidered representative of what we call a “language waiting to be discovered”,as we put, while Perl conforms more closely to the model of a language created;additional examples from the extended domain of software are included.

Computational Intention

The core entities of computer science include formal languages, spec-ifications, models, programs, implementations, semantic theories, type inference systems, abstract and physical machines. While there are conceptual questions concerning their nature, and in particular ontological ones (Turner 2018), our main focus here will be on the relationships between them. These relationships have an extensional aspect that articulates the propositional connection between the two entities, and an intentional one that fixes the direction of governance. An analysis of these two aspects will drive our investigation; an investigation that will touch upon some of the central concerns of the philosophy of computer science (Turner 2017).

Philosophy of Computer Science

The subject matter of computer science encompasses a large number of different activities that range from abstract mathematical topics through core engineering practices and scientific investigations. Subsequently, the philosophy of computer science overlaps with the philosophies of mathematics, science, and technology, and the central philosophical concerns of these disciplines all have computational analogues. The ontological status of programs, the nature of computational abstraction, and the kind of knowledge delivered by correctness proofs are central instances. In addition, because of the focus of computer science on formal languages and their semantic interpretation, the philosophy of computer science draws in topics and inspiration from the philosophies of language and mind.

Philosophy of dividing the Computer Science into Several fields

There are many divisions of philosophy named the philosophy of a domain where domains going from history to physics. This essay proposes some issues that might constitute the philosophy of computer science as architecture of computer, divide the science into hardware and software, programming languages, operating systems, network architecture, security, privacy, and of protect the machine by anti-virus

Philosophy of Computer Science and its Effect on Education - Towards the Construction of an Interdisciplinary Group

This article presents an interdisciplinary experience that brings together two areas of computer science; didactics and philosophy. As such, the article introduces a relatively unexplored area of research, not only in Uruguay but in the whole Latin American region. The reflection on the ontological status of computer science, its epistemic and educational problems, as well as their relationship with technology, allows us to elaborate a critical analysis of the discipline and a social perception of it as a basic science.
