comment What are efficient algorithms to join segments and to split a line into segments?
Maybe wrong but why don't you use a spatial DB like PostGIS or Spatialite. More efficient if you use spatial index on your tables and low level. Built-in operations for your need FYI

comment Drawing on jpg-map image with proj4 (perl)
The main problem is you can't overlay world map with points without base layer coordinates. Most of the time, you use a shapefile of the world to generate an image like above and you add on the top another layer to draw your points. Only as a comment because not perl based, you can look at python with fiona and shapely macwright.org/2012/10/31/gis-with-python-shapely-fiona.html and also matplotlib matplotlib.org/basemap/users/examples.html

comment Could someone suggest a good GeoExt Tutorial?
Most official examples enough to learn if you examine code. Because they only cover map part, don't expect lessons about ExtJS (the JavaScript Library behind) For this, see manning book ExtJS in Action and packt publishing Learning ExtJS 3.2
