Mar 19, 2011 at 0:47 comment added Ganesh Right, from a programmer's perspective it's a dynamic programming problem. However, I'm more interested in the <i>formulation </i> of the problem, and trying to extend this to functionals that may not be possibly additive.
Mar 19, 2011 at 0:44 comment added fedja The second (curvature) version of your problem on SE hardly makes sense without additional restrictions: just go in huge "almost circles" swooping one point a time. The first one is the classical traveling salesman problem on the plane. It is easier than the general version but still hard to solve exactly. Look up "Barvinok"+"traveling salesman"+"Euclidean" on Google or ArXiV for approximate polynomial time solutions.
