  • Abstract
    By researching Voronoi diagram, parallel algorithm, and divide-and-conquer method, we present a special data structure(change doubly-connected list little) for Voronoi diagram generation in parallel. In this paper we also present two proposal, they are one processor gradually to merge and 22-merger on the parallel machine, the experiment results show that the present algorithm runs faster than the serial program. By analyzing the various results, we should choose the most suitable number of processors according to the point set scale. At last, we can conclude that gradually merger with one processor is better proposal for Voronoi diagram parallel generation.
