  2022 Combinatorics, Computing, Group Theory and Applications in South Florida (CCGTA in SOUTH FLA) Boca Raton, Florida, August 14-21, 2022 Scientific Reason The purpose of the conference is to bring together experts in Group Theory, Combinatorics and Computing to discuss computational, algorithmic and application aspects that have recently emerged at the interface between these areas. These areas are fundamental now to modern communications and have values for the economy and the continuing upgrading and staying ahead in our undergraduate and postgraduate programs in these important developments. We will focus somewhat on different applications to other sciences .  We will also explore computational approaches like Computational Group Theory that give rise to new methodology in proving theoretical results. Financial Support We shall devote substantial efforts to get some funds to support participation by individuals who do not have federal support, or who are students, post...
