Abstract

Let be a set of C-oriented disjoint segments in R is a given finite set of orientations that spans the plane, and let s and t be two points. We seek a minimum-link C-oriented tour of E, that is, a polygonal path from s to t that visits the segments of E in order, such that, the orientations of its edges are in C and their number is minimum. We present an algorithm for computing such a tour in time. This problem already captures most of the difficulties occurring in the study of the more general problem, in which E is a set of not-necessarily-disjoint C-oriented polygons.
