The prediction of collisions amongst N rigid objects may be reduced to a series of computations of the time to first contact for all pairs of objects. Simple enclosing bounds and...
Graph-reduction specifications (GRSs) are a powerful new method for specifying classes of pointer data structures (shapes). They cover important shapes, like various forms of bal...
