Our aim is to understand the interplay between the\u0000number of robots and the geometric complexity of the input instance measured by\u0000the input size, which is the number of bits needed to encode the coordinates of\u0000the rectangles' vertices. We focus on axis-aligned translations, and more\u0000generally, translations restricted to a given set of directions, and we study\u0000the two settings where the robots move in the free plane, and where they are\u0000confined to a bounding box.

In\u0000the case where the robots move serially (i.e., one in each time step) and\u0000axis-aligned, we prove a structural result stating that every problem instance\u0000admits an optimal solution in which the moves are along a grid, whose size is a\u0000function of $k$, that can be defined based on the input instance. This\u0000structural result implies that the problem is fixed-parameter tractable\u0000parameterized by $k$. We also consider the case in which the robots move in\u0000parallel (i.e., multiple robots can move during the same time step), and which\u0000falls under the category of Coordinated Motion Planning problems.
