[compgeom-announce] MCS: Special Issue on Compuational Geometry and Computer-AidedGeometric Design
CALL FOR PAPERS
MATHEMATICS IN COMPUTER SCIENCE - MCS SPECIAL ISSUE
COMPUTATIONAL GEOMETRY AND COMPUTER-AIDED GEOMETRIC DESIGN
Guest Editors: Laureano Gonzalez-Vega and Sylvain Lazard
http://personales.unican.es/gonzalezl/MCS-CGCAGD
In the last years, the field of non-linear Computational Geometry has
produced very relevant algorithmic advances, for instance, by
adapting to low-degree curved objects techniques dealing with linear
primitives. Moreover, the introduction of new algorithms, techniques,
approaches, etc. for dealing efficiently with curves and surfaces has
a considerable impact in fields such as Computer-Aided Design where
users are continuously demanding more efficiency, accuracy,
robustness, etc.
New approaches for solving geometric problems, coming from
Computer-Aided Geometric Design and involving curves and surfaces
with a Computational Geometry flavour, will be the main focus of
this special issue of Mathematics in Computer Science - MCS (more
information about this new journal can be found in
http://www.springer.com/birkhauser/mathematics/journal/11786 ).
We solicit contributions in, but not limited to, areas such as:
- Arrangements of low degree curves and surfaces,
- Voronoi Diagrams and Medial Axes involving curved objects,
- Offset computations and their topology,
- Distance predicates for curves and surfaces,
- Closed formulae for geometric queries involving curves and surfaces,
- Intersection detection for moving curved objects,
- Adapting algebraic or geometrical techniques for solving algorithmic
questions involving curves and surfaces,
- Etc.
