- Abstract
The minimal enclosing circle is used in planning the location of a shared facility. The feature of the smallest enclosing circle problem is analyzed, and a simple algorithm for the smallest enclosing circle problem is presents. The algorithm is proved and its complexity is discussed. The time complexity of the algorithm is at the worst case. Numerical experiments show that the algorithm is simple and effective.
