Ask HN: Computational Thinking Outside Computer Science?

2 pointsrosstex2 comments

I would like to hear more examples, case studies or readings to learn about how computational thinking applies to fields outside computer science and how it becomes a competitive advantage. Could anyone share some resources to exploring this topic further?

You could take a look at how veteran chefs divide up tasks in busy restaurants, I guess, as a window into asynchronicity/parallelization.

Also, if your goal is to apply computational thinking to decision making in other fields, why not study operations research instead?
