Model of computation
1 linksIn computer science, and more specifically in computability theory and computational complexity theory, a model of computation is a model which describes how an output of a mathematical function is computed given an input.
Computational geometry
1 linksComputational geometry is a branch of computer science devoted to the study of algorithms which can be stated in terms of geometry.
Theoretical computer science
4 linksTheoretical computer science (TCS) is a subset of general computer science and mathematics that focuses on mathematical aspects of computer science such as the theory of computation, lambda calculus, and type theory.

General theory of mathematical structures and their relations that was introduced by Samuel Eilenberg and Saunders Mac Lane in the middle of the 20th century in their foundational work on algebraic topology.
Nowadays, category theory is used in almost all areas of mathematics, and in some areas of computer science.
Human–computer interaction
1 linksResearch in the design and the use of computer technology, which focuses on the interfaces between people (users) and computers.
Research in the design and the use of computer technology, which focuses on the interfaces between people (users) and computers.
As a field of research, human–computer interaction is situated at the intersection of computer science, behavioral sciences, design, media studies, and several other fields of study.
