Computational sociology is a methodological approach that combines sociological theory and computer science techniques to understand and analyze social phenomena. However, there are other terms that have been used synonymously or interchangeably with computational sociology, such as digital sociology, e-sociology, cybersociology, and social network analysis. Digital sociology focuses on the relationships between digital technologies and society, whereas e-sociology examines the role of electronic media in shaping social behavior. On the other hand, cybersociology emphasizes the influence of virtual communities on social structures, while social network analysis explores the patterns of relationships among individuals or groups. Despite differences in their scope and emphasis, all these terms share a common goal of applying computational tools and techniques to understand social dynamics in modern societies.
