  abstract =     "Sometimes there is a need to create a triangular mesh
                 approximation of a parametric surface. If the
                 parametrization is nonuniform (compressed in some
                 areas, stretchy in others), a uniform grid in parameter
                 space becomes distorted and provides a bad
                 approximation. We describe how to create an adaptive
                 triangulation of such a surface, provided the user of
                 the algorithm provides a routine {\tt split_edge()}
                 which indicates whether a particular edge is close
                 enough to the surface or requires splitting, and
                 optionally a routine {\tt flat_enough()} which tells
                 whether a triangle whose edges appear adequate is
                 indeed flat enough, or requires further subdivision.
                 Our contribution is a simple algorithm for guaranteeing
                 that the topology of the resulting mesh is well formed
                 in the sense that there are no cracks between triangles
                 (i.e., T-junction), and for ensuring that subdivision
                 halts at a given point. There is also rudimentary
                 support for trimmed surfaces. Source code for the
                 algorithm is available online.",
