Crust and Anti-Crust: A One-Step Boundary and Skeleton Extraction Algorithm
We wish to extract the topology from scanned maps. In previous work [15] this was done by extracting a skeleton from the Voronoi diagram, but this required vertex labelling and wa...

Interval Methods for Kinetic Simulations
We propose a speed-up method for discrete-event simulations, including sweep-line or -plane techniques, requiring the repeated calculation of the times at which certain discrete e...

Folding Flat Silhouettes and Wrapping Polyhedral Packages: New Results in Computational Origami
We show a remarkable fact about folding paper: From a single rectangular sheet of paper, one can fold it into a flat origami that takes the (scaled) shape of any connected polygo...
