In mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs), nodes mobility cause network topologies to change dynamically over time, which complicates important tasks such as broadcasting and routing. Mob...

In a distributed system where scalability is an issue, like in a GRID [5], the problem of enforcing mutual exclusion often arises in a soft form: the infrequent failure of the mut...
Abstract. Besides topological relations and approximate relations, cardinal directions have turned out to be an important class of qualitative spatial relations. In spatial databas...

We present a new technique to implement operators that modify the topology of polygonal meshes at intersections and self-intersections. Depending on the modification strategy, th...
