This is a short list of people and groups in the Barcelona region doing interesting work in areas pertaining to Shape (and related to my presentation, i.e., computer vision, graphics, computational geometry, VR, archaeology, architecture, medical image analysis, GIS, ....).

I visited some of these groups during my stay in Barcelona (Dec. 14 - 19); others I found on the web or have been introduced to them via others.

Please send me information about missing people/groups, and/or updates to the current list : leymarie@lems.brown.edu
