We present the first parallel algorithm for building a Hausdorff Voronoi diagram (HVD). Our algorithm is targeted towards cluster computing architectures and computes the Hausdorff Voronoi diagram for non-crossing objects in time O(n log^4 n/p ) for input size n and p processors.

In addition, our parallel algorithm also implies a new sequential HVD algorithm that constructs HVDs for noncrossing objects in time O(n log^4 n). This improves on previous sequential results and solves an open problem posed by Papadopoulou and Lee [18].
