Title Balancing Flexibility and Performance in Three Dimensional Meshing Tools
Authors Felipe Contreras, Nancy Hitschfeld, Cecilia Bastarrica, Carlos Lillo
Publication date March 2010
Abstract It is generally thought within the meshing tool community that object-orientation and other decoupling techniques penalize performance when they are used for building concrete meshing tools. In this paper we show that building a meshing tool with good object-oriented design metrics could not only improve maintainability and all other derived attributes such as portability and extensibility, but also its performance is comparable to a standard meshing tool that implements the same algorithms.
