[edit] Science
[edit] Computer Science
This category is devoted to the pursuit of knowledge through the traditional channels treating computers analogous with other sciences such as physics. Topics covered in academia in departments with this name are acceptable sub-categories. Skills training and less academic topics should either be found under Technology/Computer or Business/Computer Industry
[edit] Computer Systems Organization
- Same as ACM Category C. Computer Systems Organization
except for C.2 Computer-Communications Networks which is found under Technology/Networks and Telecommunications
[edit] Software Topics in Computer Science
- Same as ACM category D. Software
- See also #Computer Applications and #Software Applications and Packages
[edit] Computer Data
Same as ACM category E. Data
[edit] Theory of Computation
Same as ACM category F. Theory of Computation
[edit] Mathematics of Computing
Same as ACM category G. Mathematics of Computing
[edit] Information Systems
Same as ACM category H. Information Systems
[edit] Computing Methodologies
Same as ACM category I. Computing Methodologies
[edit] Computer Applications

There needs to be a disambiguation page for "Software" to explain the differences between the categories and direct them readers to the correct category.
[edit] Application Software
[edit] Programming Techniques
(redirect to Computers/Programming/Programming Techniques) reason for category is to mirror ACM
[edit] Programming Languages
(redirect to Computers/Programming/Programming Languages) reason for category is to mirror ACM
[edit] Software Engineering
[edit] Operating Systems
[edit] Cybernetics
I have doubts about this.
[edit] Networks and Telecommunications
Similar to ACM category C.2 Computer-Communication Networks
