In this way, efficient solutions were obtained for the windowing problem that asks for those line segments in a planar set that lie in given window (range) and the moving problem that asks for the first line segment that comes into the window when moving the window in some direction. In this paper we show that also the zooming problem, which asks for the first line segment that comes into the window when we enlarge it, can be solved efficiently. This is done by repeatedly performing range queries with ranges of varying sizes. The obtained structure is dynamic and yields a query time of O(log2n) and an insertion and deletion time of O(log2n), where n is the number of line segments in the set. The amount of storage required is O(n log n). It is also shown that the technique of repeated range search can be used to solve several other problems efficiently."}],"publication":"Information Processing Letters","publication_status":"published","_id":"4101","author":[{"last_name":"Edelsbrunner","id":"3FB178DA-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","full_name":"Edelsbrunner, Herbert","first_name":"Herbert","orcid":"0000-0002-9823-6833"},{"last_name":"Overmars","first_name":"Mark","full_name":"Overmars, Mark"}],"doi":"10.1016/0020-0190(87)90120-7","publication_identifier":{"issn":["0020-0190"],"eissn":["1872-6119"]},"extern":"1","type":"journal_article","date_updated":"2022-02-03T13:29:17Z","volume":24,"user_id":"ea97e931-d5af-11eb-85d4-e6957dddbf17","status":"public","page":"413 - 417","month":"04","date_created":"2018-12-11T12:06:57Z","citation":{"chicago":"Edelsbrunner, Herbert, and Mark Overmars. “Zooming by Repeated Range Detection.” <i>Information Processing Letters</i>.
