Zusammenfassung:
In these notes, which were originally written as lecture
notes for Advanced School on Algorithmic Foundations of Geographic
Information Systems, CISM, held in Udine, Italy, in September, 1996,
we discuss issues related to the design of a computational
geometry algorithms library.
We discuss modularity and generality, efficiency and robustness, and
ease of use. We argue that exact geometric
computation is the most promising approach to ensure robustness
in a geometric algorithms library.
Many of the presented concepts have been developed
jointly in the kernel design group of CGAL and/or in the geometry group of
LEDA. However, the view held in these notes is a personal view, not
the official view of CGAL.
