摘要: Given a set of obstacles and two distinguished points in the plane problem finding collision-free path subject to certain optimization function is fundamental that arises many fields, such as motion planning robotics, wire routing VLSI logistics operations research. In this survey we emphasize its applications design limit ourselves rectilinear domain which goal be computed underlying are all rectilinearly oriented, i.e., segments either horizontal or vertical. We consider different environments, various criteria pertaining design, provide results have been developed past, present current give open problems for future
