    Let \(G\) be a group, \(K\) a normal subgroup of \(G\) and \(Q\cong G/K\). In other words, \(G\) is an extension of \(K\) by \(Q\). Each automorphism of \(G\) which sends \(K\) into itself induces automorphisms respectively on \(K\) and on \(Q\). This subgroup of \(\Aut(G)\) is denoted by \(\Aut(G,K)\). The author considers an interesting group action of \(\Aut(K)\times\Aut(Q)\) on the set \(\mathcal H^2(Q,K)\) of all 2-cohomology classes of \(Q\) with coefficients in \(K\) and obtains a description of \(\Aut(G,K)\) and \(\text{Out}(G,K)=\Aut(G,K)/\text{Inn}(G)\) in terms of various commutative diagrams.
