Knowledge management depends on effective methods for capturing knowledge in useful forms and making it available when needed. Electronic concept maps provide a promising represen...
In this paper we present an interactive collision detection algorithm for complex and deformable objects. For two target models, our approach rapidly calculates their region of in...
