Do *you* have back issues of: [1] Journal of Algorithms (1980,1981) [2] American Math Monthly (1977) Specifically, I *need* : [1] W. Lipski, Jr. and F.P. Preparata, Finding the contour of a union of iso-oriented rectangles, Journal of Algorithms 1, 235-246 (1980). [2] W. Lipski, Jr. and F.P. Preparata, Segments, rectangles, and contours, Journal of Algorithms 2, 63-76 (1981). [3] V. Klee, Can the measure of the union of [Ai,Bi] be computed in less than O(N log N) steps?, American Math Monthly, 84(4), 284-285 (April 1977) Are you an IEEE member? Do you have one of these? [1] J.L. Bently and T.A. Ottmann, Algorithms for reporting and counting geometric intersections, IEEE Transactions on Computers 28, 643-647 (1979). [2] B.M. Chazelle and H. Edelsbrunner, An optimal algorithm for intersecting line segments, Proc. 29th IEEE Symp. on Found. of Computer Sci., (Oct 1988). IEEE Engineering Society Library wants $80 for the 29th IEEE Symposium proceedings; I just want *one* article from this 619 page monster. I'm working on a large computational geometry project and need some background before I can start coding. Any help is *very* *much* appreciated. Regards -- Shane Miller
