Let be a finite, ordered alphabet, and consider a string x = x1x2 . . . xn n . A secondary index for x answers alphabet range queries of the form: Given a range [al, ar] , retu...
We describe an approach for interactive collision detection and proximity computations on massive models composed of millions of geometric primitives. We address issues related to...
