    \par\selectlanguage{english}\textbf{Abstract}
      A two-dimensional cellular complex is a partition of a surface
      into a finite number of elements---faces (open disks), edges
      (open arcs), and vertices (points).  The topology of a cellular
      complex consists of the abstract incidence and adjacency
      relations among its elements.
    \par
      Here we describe a program that, given only the topology of a
      cellular complex, computes a geometric realization of the
      same---that is, a specific partition of a specific surface in
      three-space---guided by various aesthetic and presentational
      criteria.
