We show that the Hausdorff distance for two sets of non-intersecting line segments can be computed in parallel in O(^2 n) time using O(n) processors in a CREW-PRAM computation model. We discuss how some parts of the sequential algorithm can be performed in parallel using previously known parallel algorithms; and identify the so-far unsolved part of the problem for the parallel computation, which is the following: Given two sets of x-monotone curve segments, red and blue, for each red segment find its extremal intersection points with the blue set, i.e. points with the minimal and maximal x-coordinate. Each segment set is assumed to be intersection free. For this intersection problem we describe a parallel algorithm which completes the Hausdorff distance computation within the stated time and processor bounds.
