Title
An On-Line Algorithm for Constructing Sweep Planes in Regular Position
Abstract
An algorithm Sweepplane is presented to be used as an auxiliary algorithm by space-sweep algorithms requiring a sweep plane in regular position, i.e., a sweep plane which never meets 2 event points at the same time. Sweepplane is an on-line algorithm which ensures that the regular position of the sweep plane is never destroyed by a new event point created during the sweep. If necessary, it dynamically replaces the actual sweep plane by a more suitable one, but always in such a way that the induced order of the event points already swept is maintained.
