Transactions on Computational Science IX

The 9th issue of the Transactions on Computational Science journal, edited by François Anton, is devoted to the subject of Voronoi diagrams in science and engineering. The 9 papers included in the issue constitute extended versions of selected papers from the International Symposium on Voronoi Diagrams, held in Copenhagen, Denmark, June 23-36, 2009. Topics covered include: divide and conquer construction of Voronoi diagrams; new generalized Voronoi diagrams or properties of existing generalized Voronoi diagrams; and applications of Voronoi diagrams and their duals in graph theory, computer graphics, bioinformatics, and spatial process simulation.

Presents up-to-date theoretical and applied research on Voronoi diagrams Includes a Guest Editor's preface giving a concise history of the subject Contains improved, extended versions of selected papers from ISVD 2009
