自2007年以来，社交计算的研究已经变得越来越受科技、商业和政治等多个领域的研究人员和专业人士的欢迎。一项由华盛顿州立大学附属机构进行的研究使用了一个包含术语“社会计算”的学术论文潜在语义学，发现社会计算的主题集中在知识发现、知识共享和内容管理这三大主题中。社会计算作为一个整体继续改变信息科学的研究方向，将社会方面扩展到技术和企业领域。像谷歌、思科和福克斯这样的公司和行业已经投资了这样的项目。通过社会计算机研究可能要回答的问题包括如何形成稳定的社区，这些社区如何进化，知识如何创造和处理，人们如何积极参与等等。

Its aim is to be an experiment in a new learning environment, blurring the boundaries between coffee shops and schools, between home-schooling and institutional schooling, between tactile, multisensory methods and abstract thinking. Wildflower will serve as a research platform to test new ideas in advancing the Montessori Method in the context of modern fluencies, as well as to test how to direct the organic growth of a social system that fosters the growth and connection of such schools."<ref name="media.mit.edu"/></blockquote>

[[Computational social science]] can be defined as the interdisciplinary investigation of the social universe on many scales, ranging from individual actors to the largest grouping through the medium of computation.

[[Computational social science]] can be defined as the interdisciplinary investigation of the social universe on many scales, ranging from individual actors to the largest grouping through the medium of computation.

[[Computer science]] is the study of the principles and use of computers to study experimentation and theories.
