Call for Papers for a Special Issue of Mathematics in Computer Science
on
Algorithms and Complexity at the Interface of Mathematics and Computer
Science
Guest Editors: Gert Vegter and Chee Yap
Theoretical algorithms and their complexity are central in
foundational research at the interface between mathematics and
computer science. This will be the focus of this special issue
of Mathematics in Computer Science (MCS).
There are many current challenges at the interface of
continuous and discrete computation. For instance, how can we
faithfully and efficiently discretize a continuous geometric
object, or a continuous problem? Efficient new algorithmic
techniques must be developed and analyzed. The inherent
complexity of such problems needs to be characterized. Such
considerations are central to current research areas such as:
* robust geometric algorithms
* the surface-surface intersection (SSI) challenge in geometric
modeling
* mesh generation with topological guarantees
* the development of a theory of real computation
* the emerging field of numeric-algebraic computation
The deadline for submission is September 30, 2008
