A ranking assigns to each interval, s, a distinct rank, p(s)∊ [1, 2,…,n]. We say that s can see t if p(s)<p(t) and there is a point p∊s∩t so that p∉u for all u with p(s)<p(u)<p(t). It is shown that a ranking can be found in time O(n log n) such that each interval sees at most three other intervals. It is also shown that a ranking that minimizes the average number of endpoints visible from an interval can be computed in time O(n 5/2). The results have applications to intersection problems for intervals, as well as to channel routing problems which arise in layouts of VLSI circuits.","lang":"eng"}],"publication_identifier":{"issn":["0020-7160"],"eissn":["1029-0265"]},"publisher":"Taylor & Francis","intvolume":"        34","author":[{"id":"3FB178DA-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","first_name":"Herbert","last_name":"Edelsbrunner","orcid":"0000-0002-9823-6833","full_name":"Edelsbrunner, Herbert"},{"first_name":"Mark","last_name":"Overmars","full_name":"Overmars, Mark"},{"last_name":"Welzl","full_name":"Welzl, Emo","first_name":"Emo"},{"first_name":"Irith","last_name":"Hartman","full_name":"Hartman, Irith"},{"first_name":"Jack","last_name":"Feldman","full_name":"Feldman, Jack"}],"extern":"1","publist_id":"2051","main_file_link":[{"url":"https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/00207169008803871"}],"date_updated":"2022-02-21T13:19:52Z","publication_status":"published","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"_id":"4070","page":"129 - 144","month":"01","day":"01","user_id":"ea97e931-d5af-11eb-85d4-e6957dddbf17","quality_controlled":"1"}
