I chose this article because it is relevant to my area of research and found it to not be thoroughly defined or have sufficient examples that describe the discipline.

Evaluate the article
Overall the article is insightful as it gives an overview of what computational social science is. The article doesn't involve diagrams (such as a venn diagram) that illustrates the interdisciplinary nature of the field. The language used was simple and easy to comprehend. Majority of the references were from journals, books, and publicly accessible archived work. That being said, I find the article to lack the breadth in terms of the applications of computational social science and key research areas within the field. In addition, the article doesn't include an updated list of prominent researchers in the discipline.
