Abstract: This paper first recalls by some examples the damages that the numerical inaccuracy of the floating-point arithmetic can cause during geometric computations, and it intends to explain why damages for geometric computations differ from those met in numerical computations. Then it surveys the various approaches proposed to overcome inaccuracy difficulties; conservative approaches use classical geometric methods but with `exotic' arithmetics instead of the standard floating-point one; radical ones ...

.... central geometric operators such as the Boolean operations or some speci c variants of the Minkowski sum has always remained critical [24, 14, 23]. The authors claim that a robust algorithm is one whose correctness is proved with the assumption of a realistic machine model...
