Abstract
The authors show that, in parallel, an n -vertex simple polygon can be tested for monotonicity optimally in O (logn ) time using O (n /logn ) EREW PRAM processors, and present two different optimal parallel algorithms for solving this problem. Their result leads to an optimal parallel algorithm for triangulating monotone polygons that takes O (log n ) time using O (n /logn ) EREW PRAM processors
