Computational Geometry

This Festschrift volume is published in honor of Ferran Hurtado on the occasion of his 60th birthday; it contains extended versions of selected communications presented at the XIV Spanish Meeting on Computational Geometry, held at the University of Alcalá, Spain, in June 2011.
Ferran Hurtado has played a central role in the Spanish community of Computational Geometry since its very beginning, and the quantity and quality of the international participants in the conference is an indisputable proof of his relevance in the international level.
The 26 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. The papers present original research in computational geometry, in its broadest sense. Topics included are discrete and combinatorial geometry, linear programming applied to geometric problems, geometric algorithms and data structures, theoretical foundations of computational geometry, questions of interest in the implementation of geometric algorithms, and applications of computational geometry.
