These pages give access to the C++ source code of the experiments discussed in the paper A Case Study on the Cost of Geometric Computing, presented at ALENEX 99, Baltimore, Jan. 99, published in Springer Lecture Notes on Computer Science, Volume 1619, pages ?? - ??. This paper reports on experiments on the performance of various geometry kernels and several algorithms for the two-dimensional convex hull problem. We consider how programming techniques and the choice of geometric representation affect performance. In particular we investigate the cost of exact computation.
