| Abstract: | We study the problem of covering a polygon with minimum number of squares, possibly overlapping, all internal to the polygon. This problem has applications in VLSI mask generation, incremental update of raster displays, and image compression. We consider two types of polygons: simple and non-simple (with holes). Both related to two known polygon representions; the segments list and the bit-maps.
