Title
Consideration Of The Question “What Is Computation” Considered Harmful
Abstract
The thinking of Professors Newell, Perlis, and Simon on the subject of “What is Computer Science?” was clarified In their famous Letter in Science [2]: their statement that “computer science is the study of computers” should be read in the context of the discussion that asserts that “Phenomena breed sciences” and their reference to “the varied, rich, complex phenomena surrounding computers.” The subsequent history of computer science and computing more generally at CMU to this day, strongly supports the continued viability of this definition.
