                       State University of New York at Buffalo
                                         Oct 23 - 24, 2015

Conference Scope:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The aim of this workshop is to bring together students and researchers
from academia and industry, to stimulate collaboration on problems of
common interest arising in geometric computations. Topics to be covered
include computational geometry and related topics, e.g.,

    * Algorithmic methods in geometry and topology
    * Sensor networks and network technologies
    * I/O-scalable geometric algorithms
    * Animation of geometric algorithms
    * Computer graphics
    * Solid modeling
    * Geographic information systems
    * Graph drawing
    * Experimental studies
    * Folding and unfolding
    * Geometric data structures
    * Implementation issues
    * Robustness in geometric computations
    * Geometric algorithms for machine learning
    * Computer vision
    * Robotics
    * Computer-aided design
    * Mesh generation
    * Manufacturing applications of geometry
    * Computational biology and geometric computations
    * Practical Applications of Geometry

Following the tradition of the
previous Fall Workshops on Computational Geometry, the format of
the workshop will be informal, extending over 2 days, with several breaks
scheduled for discussions. To promote a free exchange of questions and
research challenges, there will be an Open Problem Session to present and
discuss open problems.  The workshop will include 3-4 invited speakers,
eminent leaders in their respective fields who have witnessed first-hand
the need for geometric computing and its applications. We hope that the
interaction with the computationalgeometry community will be stimulating
both to computational geometers and to those involved in applying
techniques of computational geometry to other disciplines.
