Handbook of Discrete and Computational Geometry
Author: Csaba D. Toth
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1351645919
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 2354
Book Description
The Handbook of Discrete and Computational Geometry is intended as a reference book fully accessible to nonspecialists as well as specialists, covering all major aspects of both fields. The book offers the most important results and methods in discrete and computational geometry to those who use them in their work, both in the academic world—as researchers in mathematics and computer science—and in the professional world—as practitioners in fields as diverse as operations research, molecular biology, and robotics. Discrete geometry has contributed significantly to the growth of discrete mathematics in recent years. This has been fueled partly by the advent of powerful computers and by the recent explosion of activity in the relatively young field of computational geometry. This synthesis between discrete and computational geometry lies at the heart of this Handbook. A growing list of application fields includes combinatorial optimization, computer-aided design, computer graphics, crystallography, data analysis, error-correcting codes, geographic information systems, motion planning, operations research, pattern recognition, robotics, solid modeling, and tomography.

Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks
Author: Xin Wang
Publisher: BoD – Books on Demand
ISBN: 9533074167
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 528
Book Description
Being infrastructure-less and without central administration control, wireless ad-hoc networking is playing a more and more important role in extending the coverage of traditional wireless infrastructure (cellular networks, wireless LAN, etc). This book includes state-of the-art techniques and solutions for wireless ad-hoc networks. It focuses on the following topics in ad-hoc networks: vehicular ad-hoc networks, security and caching, TCP in ad-hoc networks and emerging applications. It is targeted to provide network engineers and researchers with design guidelines for large scale wireless ad hoc networks.

ISBN: 9780898714340
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 1024
Book Description
Annotation This volume contains 93 traditional papers and 74 short form abstracts presented at the January 1999 symposium, which encouraged increased participation from the discrete mathematics community this year. Topics of the longer papers include page replacement for general caching problems, queries with segments in Voronoi diagrams, clustering in large graphs and matrices, the complexity of gene placement, and indexing schemes for random points. Some of the short paper topics are locked and unlocked polygonal chains in 3D, compact roundtrip routing for digraphs, and sampling spin configurations on an Ising system. No subject index.

Algorithmic Geometry
Author: Jean-Daniel Boissonnat
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521565295
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 548
Book Description
The design and analysis of geometric algorithms have seen remarkable growth in recent years, due to their application in, for example, computer vision, graphics, medical imaging and CAD. The goals of this book are twofold: first to provide a coherent and systematic treatment of the foundations; secondly to present algorithmic solutions that are amenable to rigorous analysis and are efficient in practical situations. When possible, the algorithms are presented in their most general d-dimensional setting. Specific developments are given for the 2- or 3-dimensional cases when this results in significant improvements. The presentation is confined to Euclidean affine geometry, though the authors indicate whenever the treatment can be extended to curves and surfaces. The prerequisites for using the book are few, which will make it ideal for teaching advanced undergraduate or beginning graduate courses in computational geometry.
