But on closer inspection, this problem reveals itself to be an interesting challenge of discrete and computational geometry with all its surprising structural forms and regularities. This book summarizes results achieved in solving the circle packing problem over the past few years, providing the reader with a comprehensive view of both theoretical and computational achievements. Typically illustrations of problem solutions are shown, elegantly displaying the results obtained.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBeyond the theoretically challenging character of the problem, the solution methods developed in the book also have many practical applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSince the codes can be worked with directly, they will enable the reader to improve on them and solve problem instances that still remain challenging, or to use them as a starting point for solving related application problems.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2007-03-02\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780387456737\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-0-387-45676-8\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 238\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45382494912652,"sku":"9780387456737","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780387456737.jpg?v=1775746055","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9780387456737","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
