I guess you already read that:
http://www.cgal.org/Manual/latest/doc_html/cgal_manual/Surface_mesh_simplification/Chapter_main.html#Subsection_52.3.2

Then you should have a look at:
http://www.cgal.org/Manual/latest/doc_html/cgal_manual/Surface_mesh_simplification_ref/FunctionObjectConcept_GetCost.html#Cross_link_anchor_1571

http://www.cgal.org/Manual/latest/doc_html/cgal_manual/Surface_mesh_simplification_ref/FunctionObjectConcept_StopPredicate.html#Cross_link_anchor_1570

Sebastien.
