Abstract

An ``arm'''' is a sequence of links whose endpoints are connected consecutively by movable joints. The location of the first endpoint is fixed. This report gives a polynomial time algorithm for determining the regions that each joint can reach when the arm is restricted to a circular region of the plane.
