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
  • Sensor networks and network technologies
  • I/O-scalable geometric algorithms
  • Animation of geometric algorithms
  • Computer graphics
  • Solid modeling
  • Geographic information systems
  • Computational metrology
  • Graph drawing
  • Experimental studies
  • Folding and unfolding
  • Geometric data structures
  • Implementation issues
  • Robustness in geometric computations
  • Geometric algorithms for machine learning
  • Computer vision
  • Robotics
  • Computer-aided design
  • Mesh generation
  • Manufacturing applications of geometry
  • Computational biology and geometric computations

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 an Open Problem Session to present and discuss open problems. The workshop will include 3-4 invited speakers, 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.
