      A three-dimensional complex is a partition of a three-dimensional
      manifold into simple cells, faces, edges and vertices. We consider
      here the problem of automatically producing a ``nice'' geometric
      representation (in $\Re^{m}$, for $m\geq 3$) of an arbitrary 3D
      complex, given only its combinatorial description. The geometric
      realization is chosen by optimizing certain aesthetic criteria,
      measured by certain ``energy functions.''
