Homotopy and Cohomology in Algebraic Topology

In this note we introduce the notion of bundle gerbe K-theory and investigate the relation to twisted K-theory. We provide some examples. Possible applications of bundle gerbe K-theory to the classification of K-brane charges in nontrivial backgrounds are briefly discussed.
