VALEP:About

The history of VALEP

VALEP was projected since sometime in the 2010s. We started programming in March 2020. The first version of VALEP which is online for testing and optimization since November 2020 was programmed by Maximilian Damböck and designed by Christian Damböck. The plan is to distribute VALEP to a wider audience in March 2021, after having removed important bugs and added decisive new features.

Hosts, supporters, and financiers

VALEP is located at the virtual server valep.vc.univie.ac.at. The server belongs to the University of Vienna and is operated and financed by the Institute Vienna Circle. Financial support came from the FWF research grant P31716 and from the Vienna Circle Society.

In a future implementation which is projected for 2022 VALEP will also mirror its data in the University of Vienna's digital depository Phaidra. The staff of Phaidra already supported the development of the first version of VALEP.

Cooperation Partners of VALEP

We are recently seeking cooperation partners among several international archives that house material on the history of Logical Empiricism. If you are interested in cooperating with VALEP as an institution or simply using VALEP for your own research and store the material that you collected in the archives please contact Christian Damböck.
