It brought together\, for the first time\, the leading scholars in this field from all over the world\, and the conference papersprovided a panorama of Early Medieval scientific knowledge\, both in Ireland and in the rest of Western Europe\, during the period of the so-called ‘Dark Ages’. That first Conference was an outstanding success\, and the proof is in the fact that we have had four others since\, and are now looking forward to the fifth this coming July. In fact\, the study of computistics has become synonymous with Galway\, with the result that NUIG has become the permanent home for the Conference \nThe previous Science of Computus conferences in Galway highlighted \n\nThe transmission of Late Antique Mathematical Knowledge in Ireland & Europe The Development of Astronomy in Early Medieval Ireland & Europe The Irish role in the development of Computistical Mathematics The use of computistics for purposes of prognostication \n\nThe Proceedings of the 1st (2006) Conference and of the 2nd (2008) have already been published\, while those of the 3rd (2010) Conference will shortly go to press. The papers\, as a rule\, appeal equally to those interested in the history of science in Ireland and Europe\, and in the origins of present-day mathematical and astronomical ideas\, specialist scholars and the wider public. \nThis year’s image is the zodiac from the Aratea manuscript in Boulogne\, Boulogne Ms 188\, f. 30v. \nFriday\, July 11\n16:00 -16:30 Welcome to the Conference \n16:30-18:00 Session 1 \nCharles Burnett: The Abacista\, companion to the Computista \nSusan Rankin: Remembering the calendar: singing Nonae Aprilis \nMichal Choptiany: Late-17th-century Cracow manuscripts of computes: Cracow\, Jagiellonian Libr.\, MS. 3377\, and Warsaw\, Nat.
