Dimension: 297 x 210 x 20. Weight in Grams: 680.
Computational geometry emerged as a discipline in the seventies and has had considerable success in improving the asymptotic complexity of the solutions tobasicgeometricproblemsincludingconstructionsofdatastructures,convex hulls, triangulations, Voronoi diagrams and geometric arrangements as well as geometric optimisation. However, in the mid-nineties, it was recognized that the computational geometry techniques were far from satisfactory in practice and a vigorous e?ort has been undertaken to make computational geometry more practical. This e?ort led to major advances in robustness, geometric software engineering and experimental studies, and to the development of a large library of computational geometry algorithms, Cgal.

Reviews for Effective Computational Geometry for Curves and Surfaces
From the reviews: "Boissonat and Teillaud have collected in this book the foundations of a computational geometry that no longer deals exclusively with linear objects but also with curved objects that arise in applications. The book is composed of eight chapters written by teams of experts in each theme, and is the result of an ... Read more
