Title: New methods in classification of algebraic curves and surfaces

Abstract: We present a few algebraic, geometric and topological methods that we use in the classification of algebraic surfaces. We speak about a few invariants of the classification as well. We discuss degeneration of algebraic surfaces, the calculation of fundamental groups and some computational methods that help with these calculations.
