Examples of group families with solvable uniform word problem
I would like to know of any examples of families of groups that are known (or conjectured) to have a solvable uniform word problem, i.e. an algorithm that given a presentation $P$ of a group in the ...

Which properties can be read off the balls of a Cayley graph?
For which properties (P) [of groups] does the following hold:
given a group $G$ which has a finite presentation with at most $n$ relations of length at most $\ell$, there is a $R(n,\ell)$ so that, if ...

Are there any computational problems in groups that are harder than P?
There are several well known classes of groups for which the word problem, conjugacy etc. are solvable in polynomial time (hyperbolic, automatic).
Then there are several classes of groups like ...

Asymptotics of the number of required Dehn relators in hyperbolic groups
If $G = \langle X | R \rangle$ is a $\delta$-hyperbolic group presentation, then Dehn's algorithm provides a linear time solution to the word problem, but the linear constant is horribly exponential ...
