CALL FOR PAPERS Special Issue on PARALLEL COMPUTATIONAL GEOMETRY INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF COMPUTATIONAL GEOMETRY AND APPLICATIONS IJCGA is dedicating a special issue to parallel computational geometry, in recognition of the increasing recent interest and progress in this area. Authors should note the benefits of publication in a special issue -- a collection of high-quality related papers in one volume, plus a guarantee of publication of accepted papers with minimal time delay. The emphasis of the special issue is parallel computational geometry. This includes deterministic or randomized parallel algorithms for traditional computational geometry problems, as well as geometric problems arising from applications such as computer vision, computer-aided design, solid modeling, VLSI design, or computer graphics. It also includes lower bounds for solving geometric problems in parallel. The focus of this issue is not restricted to any particular parallel model; submissions that use a synchronous PRAM model, an asynchronous PRAM model, a network model (such as the hypercube, mesh-of-processors, or cube-connected cycles), or even a non-standard parallel model are all welcome. All manuscripts will be promptly and carefully refereed. Also, IJCGA strongly encourages electronic submission of papers in final form to minimize typesetting time. Authors should send five (5) copies of a manuscript to Michael T. Goodrich Department of Computer Science Johns Hopkins University Baltimore, Maryland 21218 by November 30, 1990. Authors are encouraged to submit as early as possible.
