Increasing prevalence of large-scale distributed monitoring and computing environments such as sensor networks, scientific federations, Grids etc., has led to a renewed interest in...
: We present a new approach for computing generalized Voronoi diagrams in two and three dimensions using interpolation-based polygon rasterization hardware. The input primitives ma...
