[GAP Forum] Workshop CoGrAl2015 Announcement

[Juergen Mueller]

Dear colleagues,

This is the first announcement of a forthcoming workshop entitled

   Computations in Groups and Algebras (CoGrAl2015)
   ===================================

organised by Simon King, Jürgen Müller, and Benjamin Sambale,
and taking place at

   * Friedrich Schiller University Jena (Germany),
   * from Monday, February 16th, to Thursday, February 19th, 2015.

The aim of the workshop is to shed some light on various recent
aspects of finite group theory, with a particular view towards
algorithms and computations. More specifically, we will focus
on the following topics:

   * Cohomology of finite-dimensional algebras
   * Structure of p-groups and fusion systems
   * Block theory of finite groups

Invited speakers are: (*) to be confirmed
