Abstract

We present a parallel algorithm based on open ear decomposition to construct an embedding of a graph onto the plane or report that the graph is nonplanar. Our parallel algorithm runs on a CRCW PRAM in logarithmic time with a number of processors bounded by that needed for finding connected components in a graph and for performing bucket sort.
