This volume contains contributions by the participants of the conference and “Groups and Computation, and ” which took place at The Ohio State University in Columbus, Ohio, in June 1999. This conference was the successor of two workshops on and “Groups and Computation and ” held at DIMACS in 1991 and 1995. There are papers on permutation group algorithms, finitely presented groups, polycyclic groups, and parallel computation, providing a representative sample of the breadth of Computational Group Theory. On the other hand, more than one third of the papers deal with computations in matrix groups, giving an in-depth treatment of the currently most active area of the field. The points of view of the papers range from explicit computations to group-theoretic algorithms to group-theoretic theorems needed for algorithm development.
