Abstract: We give fast randomized and deterministic parallel methods
for constructing convex hulls in IR
d
, for any fixed d.
Our methods are for the weakest shared-memory model,
the EREW PRAM, and have optimal work bounds (with
high probability for the randomized methods). In particular,
we show that the convex hull of n points in IR
d
can
be constructed in O(logn) time using O(n log n + n
bd=2c
)
work, with high probability. We also show that it can
be constructed deterministically in O(log
