Standards and innovations: University computer labs and the Market Reserve in Brazil
Keywords:
History of Informatics, Market Reserve, Brazil, Research & DevelopmentAbstract
The aim of this article is to analyze the production of one of the laboratories of the Polytechnic School of the University of São Paulo, the Integrated Systems Laboratory (LSI), between 1970 and 1980. The research evaluated theses, dissertations, and projects developed to understand how the themes of innovation and technological development were handled in the production of artifacts in an academic environment. We sought to elucidate possible tensions in the use of equipment that should follow the standards available in the domestic market while the control of imports of computer inputs, known as Market Reserve, was taking place in Brazil. The development of proposals for technological adaptation was the response of national engineering to that situation arising from the Brazilian information technology policy.
