The IGG group is the first research group in computer science associated to the CNRS that was created in Strasbourg by Jean-François Dufourd and Jean Françon, more than twenty years ago.

Since fifteen years this research group is composed of about ten teniors. In 10 years, since Dominique Bechmann came at its head, the group has been almost completey renewed : only Dominique Bechmann, Jean-François Dufourd and Pascal Schreck - who were assistant professors at the time - were already in the team in 1997. Several events, such as the departure of many researchers for laboratories in Poitiers (Eric Andrès PR, Yves Bertrand PR, Laurent Fuchs MC, Pascal Lienhardt PR), Limoges (Djamchid Ghanzanfarpour PR) and Clermont-Ferrand (Jean-Pierre Réveilles PR), and such as the integration of discrete geometry and mathematical morphology in the MIV group, the return of Jean-Michel Dischler from Limoges on a professor position in 2001, and the hiring of eight new assistant professors, have largely recomposed this team and redrawn its scientific contours.

Since the last evaluation in 2003, IGG's group has recentered its research activities around its core business : geometric modeling, which is now conjugated under all its aspects. It is more precisely the topic of Theme 1 - modeling, construction and proofs in geometry - to which the four professors and five assistant professors participate. Moreover, Sylvain Thery - research engineer from the Ministery, hired in 2005 - works on a transversal project related to the operations of this theme through the conception and implementation of a geometric modeling software framework.

Also, the program RéVA allowed the group to consolidate its expertise in virtual reality and simulation. Theme 2 - visualization, interaction and simulation - focuses on those more recent topics which involve three of the four professors of the group and five of its assistant professors. A virtual reality device of type workbench welcomes the developments of this theme's participants. In 2007 the planned hiring of a CNRS research engineer will allow to ensure the continued existence of this theme thanks to the ressources' centralization, especially through the development of a virtual reality software framework and its scientific applications focused on medical ones.
