A linear algorithm for Brick Wang tiling

In computer graphics, Wang tiles are used as a tool to generate non periodic textures and patterns. We develop a framework and a method for the tiling problem which is suitable for applications. In particular, we apply our methodology to a special kind of Wang tiles, called Brick Wang tiles, introduced by Derouet-Jourdan et al. in 2015 to model wall patterns. We generalise their result by providing a linear algorithm to decide and solve the tiling problem for arbitrary planar regions with holes.
