The Case for the Preservation of R&D Project Websites
“About 1 year ago, Arquivo.pt performed an experiment to preserve the .EU domain.
We are now trying to focus on preserving sites of R&D projects. To this end, our first idea was to use the EU Open Data Portal to identify these project URLs. The problem is that from the 25 608 R&D projects funded by FP7 listed by the EU Open Data Portal, only 7.9% had an associated project URL.
So, the first main challenge is to identify R&D project web sites to be preserved.
And you can help!”
Pionnières dans l’archivage du .eu, les archives du Web portugaises s’intéressent aujourd’hui à la préservation des sites de projets, notamment européens, et de leurs résultats intermédiaires.

ENIAC in action
ENIAC in Action, Making and Remaking the Modern Computer, By Thomas Haigh, Mark Priestley and Crispin Rope (The MIT Press, février 2016)
Within this broad sweep, the authors emphasize the crucial but previously neglected years of 1947 to 1948, when ENIAC was reconfigured to run what the authors claim was the first modern computer program to be executed: a simulation of atomic fission for Los Alamos researchers. The authors view ENIAC from diverse perspectives—as a machine of war, as the “first computer,” as a material artifact constantly remade by its users, and as a subject of (contradictory) historical narratives. They integrate the history of the machine and its applications, describing the mathematicians, scientists, and engineers who proposed and designed ENIAC as well as the men—and particularly the women who—built, programmed, and operated it.
