The Handbook of Geometric Constraint Systems Principles is an entry point to the currently
used principal mathematical and computational tools and techniques of the geometric …

Polygonal surface models are typically used in three dimensional (3D) visualizations and
simulations. They are obtained by laser scanners, computer vision systems or medical …

The problem of algorithm selection, that is identifying the most efficient algorithm for a given
computational task, is non-trivial. Meta-learning techniques have been used successfully for …

The widespread use and applicability of Evolutionary Algorithms is due in part to the ability
to adapt them to a particular problem-solving context by tuning their parameters. This is one …

Purpose–This is the second part of a two-part paper. The purpose of this paper is to report
the results on the application of the methods that use the Response Surface Methodology to …

In this paper, we are concerned with geometric constraint solvers, ie, with programs that find
one or more solutions of a geometric constraint problem. If no solution exists, the solver is …

Abstract The Computer-Aided Design field has developed sketching systems that
automatically instantiate geometric objects from a rough sketch, annotated with dimensions …

A novel method for procedurally modelling large, complex three–dimensional scenes is
presented. Our approach is general-purpose and takes as input any three–dimensional …

Purpose–This is the first part of a two-part paper. The purpose of this paper is to report on
methods that use the Response Surface Methodology (RSM) to investigate an Evolutionary …

Many, if not all, manufacturing processes in industry require scheduling activities; such
activities are very important as often they determine the success or failure of some …
