History

This series of Fall Workshops on Computational Geometry was originally founded under the sponsorship of the Mathematical Sciences Institute (MSI) at Stony Brook (with funding from the U. S. Army Research Office) and held there from 1991 through 1995. It continued during 1996-1999 under the sponsorship of the Center for Geometric Computing, a collaborative center of Brown, Duke, and Johns Hopkins Universities, also funded by the U.S. Army Research Office.

The workshop returned to Stony Brook for its tenth year, and then moved to Polytechnic University, Brooklyn, NY for its eleventh. The twelfth workshop (2002) was part of the Special Focus on Computational Geometry and Applications at DIMACS, while the thirteenth (2003) was part of the the Mathematical Foundation of Geometric Algorithms, as part of the Special Semester on Computational Geometry at Mathematical Sciences Research Institute, Berkeley. The fourteenth through eighteenth workshops were held in 2004-2008 in MIT, the University of Pennsylvania, Smith College, IBM T.J. Watson Research Center, and Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, respectively.

In 2009, we are proud to host the Fall Workshop on Computational Geometry at Tufts University, bringing the workshop again to the Boston area.
