Abstract: | The two-dimensional packing problem of finding optimal layouts for identical rectangular boxes on a rectangular pallet has interested OR practitioners for many years. The problem is NP-complete and solution methods to date tend to be heuristic. This paper discusses the development of an exact tree search algorithm based on a graph-theoretic model of the problem. |
