[comp.theory] Looking for Algorithm for Computing Vornoi Tesselations

rob@sorrel.sorrel.gatech.edu (Rob McCurley) (07/05/90)

A problem I'm looking at requires computation of Vornoi
tesselations (Vornoi diagrams) for spaces of dimension three and
greater.  Several books on computational geometry (e.g., Preparata &
Shamos, "Computational Geometry") give high-level algorithms for the
problem, but transforming them to implementations is non-trivial.
Before I undertake the task, I was wondering if anyone has or knows of
any existing implementations of algorithms for computing Vornoi
tesselations that

1) will run on a Sun 3/60 workstation,

2) are in the public domain, and

3) will work for spaces of arbitrary dimension?

I would be grateful for any relevant information.  I will post a
summary of the responses for anyone who is interested (provided I get
any responses, that is).
