Introduction:

Computational discrete algebra is concerned with algorithms for computing with groups, semigroups, categories, algebras, and related structures, as well as automorphism objects of combinatorial structures.
The two general-purpose CDA packages are GAP and MAGMA.
Work at Bangor is aimed at developing GAP packages implementing many of the new, higher-dimensional, structures for algebra and algebraic topology which are described in Ronnie Brown's web pages.
