We study the problem of finding a polygonal chain of line segments to cover a set of points in ℝd, d≥2, with the goal of minimizing the number of links or turns in the chain. A chain of line segments that covers all points in the given set is called a covering tour if the chain is closed, and is called a covering path if the chain is open. A covering tour or a covering path is rectilinear if all segments in the chain are axis-parallel. We prove that the two problems Minimum-Link Rectilinear Covering Tour and Minimum-Link Rectilinear Covering Path are both NP-hard in ℝ10.
