|Has title=Parallel Enclosing Circle Algorithm
|Has owner=Oliver Chang,
A thin-wrapper around [[Enclosing_Circle_Algorithm_(Rework)|the enclosing circle algorithm]] which allows for instance-level parallelization.
This project consists of the python files in <code>E:\McNair\Projects\OliverLovesCircles\src\python</code>. There is another version of the project with plotting functionality that uses a slightly different approach (removes duplicate points and uses their counts before running the algorithm) in <code>E:\McNair\Projects\KyranLovesCircles\src\python</code>.
Parallelization is implemented via Python2's [https://docs.python.org/2/library/subprocess.html#subprocess.Popen <code>subprocess.open()</code>] which is non-blocking and available in the standard library.
