The problem of numerically computing an approximate parameterization of the curve of intersection of (n-1) surfaces in $R^n$ is considered. A precise definition of an ϵ-approximate parameterization is given. It is shown that, under reasonable conditions, the parameterization computed by marching methods using local error control is ϵ-approximate. Various integration methods are compared. A particular Runge-Kutta method shows up as the strong favourite for use in geometric modelling.
