class BSplineSurfaceKnotSplitting   from GeomConvert

        --- Purpose : An algorithm to determine isoparametric curves along
    	-- which a BSpline surface should be split in order to
    	-- obtain patches of the same continuity.
        --  For a B-spline surface the discontinuities are localised at
        --  the knot values. Between two knots values the B-spline is
        --  infinitely continuously differentiable.  For each parametric 
        --  direction at a knot of range index the continuity in this
        --  direction is equal to :  Degree - Mult (Index)   where  Degree
        --  is the degree of the basis B-spline functions and Mult the
        --  multiplicity of the knot of range Index in the given direction.
        --  If for your computation you need to have B-spline surface with a 
        --  minima of continuity it can be interesting to know between which
        --  knot values, a B-spline patch, has a continuity of given order.
        --  This algorithm computes the indexes of the knots where you should
        --  split the surface, to obtain patches with a constant continuity
        --  given at the construction time. If you just want to compute the
        --  local derivatives on the surface you don't need to create the
        --  BSpline patches, you can use the functions LocalD1, LocalD2, 
        --  LocalD3, LocalDN of the class BSplineSurface from package Geom.

    	-- Note: If UIndex is equal to 1, or to the number of split knots for the u
    	--  parametric direction computed in
    	-- this framework, the corresponding knot gives the
    	-- parameter of one of the bounding curves of the surface.

    	-- of split knots for the u parametric direction computed in this framework.

    	-- an index in the knots table relative to the v
    	--  parametric direction of the BSpline surface analysed by this algorithm.
    	-- Note: If UIndex is equal to 1, or to the number of split knots for the v
    	--  parametric direction computed in
    	-- this framework, the corresponding knot gives the
    	-- parameter of one of the bounding curves of the surface.
    	-- Exceptions
