Abstract
[an error occurred while processing this directive]

The history, definition and principal properties of automatic groups and their generalisations to subgroups and cosets are reviewed briefly, mainly from a computational perspective. A result about the asynchronous automaticity of an HNN extension is then proved and applied to an example that was proposed by Mark Sapir.
