RESUMO

Research in data structure area are essential to increase the generality and computational effciency of geometric models` representation. In this work, we present two new scalable topological data structures, one for triangulated surfaces, called CHE (Compact Half { Edge ), and the another for tetrahedral meshes, called CHF (Compact Half { Face ). Such structures are composed of different levels, that enable us to modify the amount of data stored with the objective to improve its computational effciency. The use of APIs based in the object concept and class inheritance, makes possible an unique interface for each function at any level. CHE and CHF requires very few memory and are simple to implement since they substitute the use of pointers by generic containeres and arithmetical rules.
