Description: "The stimulus for this volume was provided by the international conference on Algorithmic Problems in Groups and Semigroups, held in May of 1998 at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln." "New results, interesting techniques, and often overlapping ideas from diverse fields are reflected in this collection of largely expository articles which cover topics in algorithmic group and semigroup theory, and computer science.".

"This book can serve as a good introduction to algorithmic problems in groups and semigroups for graduate students and as a useful text for researchers in that area."--BOOK JACKET.
