Summary: The paper considers a continuous problem of optimal \(c\)-sphere covering of a compact set \(\Omega \) of \(\mathbb E_n\) with a given number of spheres of minimum radius and a problem of covering a set with the minimum number of spheres of given radius. Algorithms are proposed and substantiated to solve the problems using optimal set-partition theory and Shor’s \(r\)-algorithm.
