    The authors describe the main ideas of an algorithm which computes the topological type of a non-singular curve C in the real projective plane \({\mathbb{P}}^ 2\). A main tool is to construct a cellular decomposition D of \({\mathbb{P}}^ 2\) such that every connected component of C is a union of cells of D. This algorithm might be useful in studying examples related to Hilbert's 16-th problem.
