In this model, a single agent with strictly limited viewing range and the computational capability of a deterministic finite automaton can act on passive tiles by picking up a tile, moving, and placing it at some spot. The goal of the coating problem is to fill each node of some surface graph of size n with a tile. We first solve the problem on a restricted class of graphs with a single tile type, and then use constantly many tile types to encode this graph in certain surface graphs capturing the surface of 3D objects. Our algorithm requires O(n^2) steps, which is worst-case optimal compared to an agent with global knowledge and no memory restrictions.","lang":"eng"}],"editor":[{"first_name":"Yuval","full_name":"Emek, Yuval","last_name":"Emek"}],"status":"public","publication":"Structural Information and Communication Complexity","type":"book_chapter"}
