Title
Optimum Guard Covers and $m$-Watchmen Routes for Restricted Polygons
Abstract
A watchman, in the terminology of art galleries, is a mobile guard. We consider severalwatchman and guard problems for different classes of polygons. We introduce the notion ofvision spans along a path (route) which provide a natural connection between the Art Galleryproblem, the m-watchmen problem and the watchman route problem. We prove that findingthe minimum number of vision points, i.e., static guards, along a shortest watchman routeis NP-hard. We provide a linear time algorithm...
