Presented under the auspices of the Special Focus on Computational Geometry and Applications.
We are pleased to announce the twelfth in a series of annual fall
workshops on Computational Geometry. This workshop series, founded
initially under the sponsorship of the Mathematical Sciences Institute
(MSI) at Stony Brook (with funding from the U. S. Army Research Office),
has 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, the workshop returned to the campus of the University at Stony
Brook. In 2001, it was held at Polytechnic University in Brooklyn. This
year, as part of the DIMACS Special Focus on Computational Geometry and
Applications, the workshop is being hosted and sponsored by DIMACS.
Scope and Format:
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
Geometric data structures
Implementation issues
Robustness
Computer graphics
Solid modeling
Geographic information systems
Applications to computational biology and chemistry
Computational metrology
Graph drawing
Experimental studies
Computer vision
Robotics
Computer-aided design
Mesh generation
Manufacturing applications of geometry
I/O-scalable geometric algorithms
Animation of geometric algorithms
Following the tradition of the previous workshops on Computational
Geometry, the format of the workshop will be informal, extending over
2 days, with several breaks scheduled for discussions. There will also be
an Open Problem Session in order to promote a free exchange of
questions and research challenges.
