Foreword

The Twenty-Second Annual Canadian Conference on Computational Geometry (CCCG 2010) was held at the University of Manitoba in Winnipeg, Canada, from August 9-11, 2010, and co-chaired by Stephane Durocher and Jason Morrison. This was the first time this conference was hosted in the province of Manitoba. As in previous years, the focus of the conference was on current topics in discrete and computational geometry, including both theoretical and applied results. Submitted manuscripts were refereed by a program committee, which in 2010 consisted of twenty-six international researchers. The conference included three invited plenary lectures, presented respectively by David Avis (who gave the annual Erdos Memorial Lecture), David Eppstein, and David Kirkpatrick. The conference had 99 attendees and received 90 paper submissions, of which three were withdrawn and 68 were accepted. Accepted papers were published in the conference proceedings (available electronically at cccg.ca). Authors of exceptional papers were invited to submit a revised version to this special issue of Computational Geometry: Theory and Applications. The conference organizers would like to thank the program committee for their meticulous reviews and discussion of submitted papers, and for promoting the conference. As well, the guest editors of this issue would like to thank the authors for carefully preparing and revising submissions and the referees for their efforts in providing thorough and prompt reviews of the submitted manuscripts.
