present Digital Transformations of Knowledge with
Dr. Ralph Schroeder from Oxford University
on Thursday, April 11, 4-5:30 p.m in Argyros Forum, Room 209 A&B.
In recent years, there has been a proliferation of research projects and programs under the labels of e-Science, e-Humanities, cyber-infrastructures, and e-Infrastructures. The broader term ‘e-Research’ encompasses all of these, and can be defined in shorthand form as distributed and collaborative digital tools and data for online knowledge production. These digital approaches have transformed knowledge and reconfigured disciplines; especially the relation between computer science and other fields, but also more fundamentally between scientific approaches and other that are less scientific.
This event is part of the Media, Technology and Soceity Colloquium and is free.
