Locally Constrained Shortest Paths and an Application in Mission Planning

We consider a generalization of the constrained shortest path problem, in which we forbid certain pairs of edges to appear consecutively on a feasible path. This problem has applications in robotics and optimal mission planning. We propose a dynamical programming heuristic for this problem and show computational results of an application in routing an aircraft through hostile space.
