Abstract
Spurred by developments in spatial planning in robotics, computer graphics, and VLSI layout, considerable attention has been devoted recently to the problem of moving sets of objects such as line segments and polygons in the plane, or polyhedra in three dimensions, without allowing collisions between the objects. One class of such problems considers the separability of sets of objects under different kinds of motions and various definitions of separation. An overview of this area of research is provided.
