Extractions: Program available Proceedings Participants We are pleased to announce the eleventh in a series of annual fall workshops on Computational Geometry. This workshop series, founded originally under the sponsorship of the Mathematical Sciences Institute (MSI) at Stony Brook (with funding from the U. S. Army Research Office), continued during 1996-1999 under the sponsorship of the Center for Geometric Computing, a collaborative center of Brown, Duke, and Johns Hopkins Universities, also funded by the U.S. Army Research Office. In 2000, for the tenth in the workshop series, the workshop was again held on the campus of the University at Stony Brook. This year, for the first time, it will be held at Polytechnic University in Brooklyn. The aim of this workshop is to bring together students and researchers from academia and industry, to stimulate collaboration on problems of common interest arising in geometric computations. Topics to be covered include, but are not limited to: Algorithmic methods in geometry I/O-scalable geometric algorithms Animation of geometric algorithms Computer graphics Solid modeling Geographic information systems Computational metrology Graph drawing Experimental studies Geometric data structures Implementation issues Robustness in geometric computations Computer vision Robotics Computer-aided design Mesh generation Manufacturing applications of geometry

Computational Geometry ICS 161 Design and Analysis of Algorithms Lecture notes for March 7, 1996 http://www.ics.uci.edu/~eppstein/161/960307.html
Extractions: Lecture notes for March 7, 1996 Many situations in which we need to write programs involve computations of a geometric nature. For instance, in video games such as Doom, the computer must display scenes from a three-dimensional environment as the player moves around. This involves determining where the player is, what he or she would see in different directions, and how to translate this three-dimensional information to the two-dimensional computer screen. A data structure known as a binary space partition is commonly used for this purpose. In order to control robot motion , the computer must generate a model of the obstacles surrounding the robot, find a position for the robot that is suitable for whatever action the robot is asked to perform, construct a plan for moving the robot to that position, and translate that plan into controls of the robot's actuators. One example of this sort of problem is parallel parking a car how can you compute a plan for entering or leaving a parking spot, given a knowledge of nearby obstacles (other cars) and the turning radius of your own car? In scientific computation such as the simulation of the airflow around a wing, one typically partitions the space around the wing into simple regions such as triangles (as shown below), and uses some simple approximation (such as a linear function) for the flow in each region. The computation of this approximation involves the numerical solution of differential equations and is outside the scope of this class. But where do these triangles come from? Typically the actual input consists of a description of the wing's outline, and some algorithm must construct the triangles from that input this is another example of a geometric computation.

Extractions: This page collects various areas in which ideas from discrete and computational geometry (meaning mainly low-dimensional Euclidean geometry) meet some real world applications. It contains brief descriptions of those applications and the geometric questions arising from them, as well as pointers to web pages on the applications themselves and on their geometric connections. This is largely organized by application but some major general techniques are also listed as topics. Suggestions for other applications and pointers are welcome.

Extractions: 19th Annual Fall Workshop on Computational Geometry http://www.cs.tufts.edu/fwcg2009 The aim of this workshop is to bring together students and researchers from academia and industry, to stimulate collaboration on problems of common interest arising in geometric computations. Topics to be covered include, but are not limited to: Following the tradition of the previous Fall Workshops on Computational Geometry, the format of the workshop will be informal, extending over 2 days, with several breaks scheduled for discussions. To promote a free exchange of questions and research challenges, there will be a special focus on Open Problems, with a presentation on The Open Problems Project, as well as an Open Problem Session to present new open problems. Submissions are strongly encouraged to include stand-alone open problems, which will be collected into a separate webpage and considered for inclusion in The Open Problems Project. As invited speakers, we expect to have five eminent leaders in their respective fields who have witnessed first-hand the need for geometric computing and its applications. We hope that the interaction with the computational geometry community will be stimulating both to computational geometers and to those involved in applying techniques of computational geometry to other disciplines.
