Method for determining a set of boundary points in a lattice

摘要

A method and system for determining a set of boundary points within a lattice is provided herein. The lattice is normalized into a regularly-spaced array and a first point within the array is selected. A software routine repeatedly locates boundary points by examining neighboring points and tracking array direction. The system includes a processor operatively connected to a display, an input device and a memory. The memory includes the software routine and the routine is executed on the processor. The output of the software routine is send to the display for viewing.
