Minimizing the object dimensions in circle and sphere packing problems
Given a fixed set of identical or different-sized circular items, the problem we deal with consists on finding the smallest object within which the items can be packed. Circular, ...

Algebraic methods and arithmetic filtering for exact predicates on circle arcs
The purpose of this paper is to present a new method to design exact geometric predicates in algorithms dealing with curved objects such as circular arcs. We focus on the comparis...

Computing the Closest Point to a Circle
In this paper we consider the problem of computing the closest point to the boundary of a circle among a set S of n points. We present two algorithms to solve this problem. One al...

The Pervasive Interface; Tracing the Magic Circle
This paper is an addition to the discourse surrounding interface theory and pervasive games. A buzzword by nature, the term ´interface´ needs to be investigated and redefined in...

A Simple Factor-2/3 Approximation Algorithm for Two-Circle Point Labeling
Given a set P of n points in the plane, the two-circle point-labeling problem consists of placing 2n uniform, non-intersecting, maximum-size open circles such that each point touc...
