how to program collision detection for garment simulation?

[ztarek]

hi everyone,
I am a biginner in the field of simulation, I would like to know how to detect the collision between the garment and the body of a humanoid and if I need to program this solution which programming language to use.what about physics engine?
i have to develop methods to propose a compromise
between computational speed and accuracy of detection while avoiding new and interpenetration
collisions produced and induced after treatment of these collisions.
