Is "Computer Sciences" an individual Area of Knowledge?

Or does it belong to another AoK, such as Mathematics or Natural sciences? I need to know this for my presentation, where im talking about algorithms which are made using computers, and then turned into models (automatically).

 

Computer science is a part of mathematics & natural science because it is an engineering discipline that relies on the laws of physics & the laws of mathematics. However, don't worry too much about it, because computer science can still be considered as an area of knowledge that is contained within a bigger area of knowledge. Honestly, you shouldn't worry yourself about the formality of the language. TOK-presentation is supposed to be fun, creative and natural. Defining what area of knowledge really is is a minor detail.
