To overcome these problems, the Extended Set of Smallest Rings (ESSR) was developed as part, of the research on the (Generic Structures Project at Sheffield University. The ESSR includes all simple-faces plus all primary and secondary cut-faces, as defined here it does not include regions or non-regions that are not simple-cycles, or non-regions that are classified as tertiary cut-faces. An algorithm to find the ESSR has been described. ...
