Second CGC Workshop on
Computational Geometry
October 18-19, 1997
Duke University, Durham, NC
We are pleased to have hosted the second annual fall Workshop on Computational Geometry,
sponsored by the Center for Geometric Computing,
continuing a tradition established by the Mathematical
Sciences Institute at SUNY-Stony Brook. The
Center for Geometric Computing is a
collaborative center of
Brown,
Duke, and
Johns Hopkins Universities, and is funded
by the U.S. Army Research Office.
Thanks to the speakers and volunteers who made the workshop
a success!
The aim of this workshop was to bring together researchers from academia, industry, and
the Army to stimulate collaboration on problems of common interest arising in geometric
computations. Topics covered at the workshop included
- Algorithmic methods in geometry
- I/O-scalable geometric algorithms
- Animation of geometric algorithms
- Computer graphics
- Solid modeling
- Geographic information systems
- Computational metrology
|
- Geometric data structures
- Implementation issues
- Robustness
- Computer vision
- Robotics
- Computer-aided design
- Mesh generation
|
Following the tradition of the previous MSI and CGC Workshops on
Computational Geometry, the format of the workshop was informal, extending over 2
days, with several breaks for discussions.
A booklet of
abstracts was distributed at the workshop and made available electronically on the
Web. There were no formal proceedings for this workshop, but selected papers will be
invited to a special issue of the
International Journal of Computational Geometry and Applications.
Registration was on-site, and included the abstract booklets, lunches, and coffee
breaks. There was a nominal registration fee of $25.
