The apparition of a new science poses different kinds of questions: What is this new science and how is it different from others? Can this new science be integrated in existing classifications of the sciences before its appearance, or do these classifications have to be modified? How does the apparition change our vision of what the sciences are as a whole? In this talk I will try to present some elements of an answer for the specific case of computer science.
