[comp.graphics] Polygon Trianguation Pointers

sumane@anaconda.stanford.edu (Thilaka Sumanaweera) (09/20/89)

For those of you who wanted some pointers in Polygon Triangulation,
here are some:

1. An introduction to Delaunay Triangulation is in the book:
	Computational Geometry, An Introduction -
	Franco O. Preparata, Michael Ian Shamos. Springer-Verlag

2. The way to introduce new points to the set so that the
   Delaunay Trianguation contains the edges of the polygon
   is in pp 5-7 of:
	Shape Reconstruction from Planar Cross Sections
	- Jean-Daniel Boissonnat, Journal of Computer Vision, Graphics
	  and Image Processsing 44, pp 1-29, 1988

3. A simple algorithm to implement 2D-Delaunay Trianguation is in:
	An Implementation of Watson's Algorithm for Computing
	2-dimensional Delaunay Triangulations - Sloan and Houlsby
	- Advanced Engineering Software, 1984, Vol 6, No 4. (This
	  is a journal in the UK)

Good luck!
