Abstract
The FINDSPACE problem is that of establishing a volume in space where an object of specified dimensions will fit. The problem seems to have two subproblems: the hypothesis generation problem of finding a likely spot to try, and the verification problem of testing that spot for occupancy by other objects. This paper treats primarily the verification problem.
