Polylib is a free C library for doing computations on
polyhedra. The library is operating on objects like vectors, matrices,
lattices, polyhedra, Z-polyhedra, unions of polyhedra and other
intermediary structures. It provides functions for all important
operations on these structures.
Polylib can be downloaded from
http://www.irisa.fr/polylib/polylib.tgz
This document is Polylib user's manual. It contains
the information needed to understand what Polylib does,
how it can be installed, and a few words about how it
is implemented.
In this introduction, we first describe polyhedra,
then we present the applications of Polylib,
we develop a little bit the relationship between polyhedra and
parallelization techniques,
we provide a few references,
we present the organization of Polylib, and finally, we present the
remaining of the document.
This documentation is clearly imperfect. But an imperfect documentation
is certainly better than no documentation at all. We are constantly
correcting and improving our library (see its history on Polylib
web site) and in this time the documentation is suffering the same process. You can download the last version from the official Polylib page:
