The papers in this volume were presented at a conference that was
designed to map out historical study needs in one area of the
history of computing, namely, software. The Paderbom conference was
sponsored by the Heinz Nixdorf Muse- umsForum and co-sponsored by
the Charles Babbage Institute and the Heinz Nixdorf Institute of
the University of Paderbom. The idea for the conference emerged
from the consideration of a larger concept that was to prepare a
new handbook on the history of computing. Believing that
preparation of the handbook would encounter obstacles in some areas
of computing that have not received adequate attention from
historians, the originators of the idea of the handbook decided on
aseries of mapping conferences to try to overcome the obstacles, of
which the Paderbom conference is the first. The organizers of the
conference invited a group of historians, sociologists, and
computer scientists to present pa- pers and comments about a
selected set of issues in the history of software. The organizing
committee consisted of William Aspray (Computing Research Asso-
ciation, Washington, D. C. ), Martin Campbell-Kelly (University of
Warwick, U. K. ), Ulf Hashagen (Heinz Nixdorf MuseumsForum,
Paderbom), Reinhard Keil- Slawik (Heinz Nixdorf Institute,
University of Paderbom), Michael S. Mahoney (Princeton University)
and Arthur L. Norberg (Charies Babbage Institute, Uni ver- sity of
Minnesota).
