This paper presents two novel genetic algorithms (GAs) for hard industrially relevant packing problems. The design of both algorithms is inspired by aspects of molecular genetics,...
As Bin Packing is NP-hard already for k = 2 bins, it is unlikely to be solvable in polynomial time even if the number of bins is a fixed constant. However, if the sizes of the item...
We consider the following "multiway cut packing" problem in undirected graphs: we are given a graph G = (V, E) and k commodities, each corresponding to a set of terminal...
We present an asymptotic fully polynomial time approximation scheme for two-dimensional strip packing with rotations. In this problem, a set of rectangles need to be packed into a...
