Abstract
We examine the 2D strip packing problems with guillotine-cut constraint, where the objective is to pack all rectangles into a strip with fixed width and minimize the total height of the strip. We combine three most successful ideas for the orthogonal rectangular packing problems into a single coherent algorithm: (1) packing a block of rectangles instead of a single rectangle in each step; (2) dividing the strip into layers and pack layer by layer; and (3) unrolling and repacking the top portion of the solutions where usually wasted space occurs. Computational experiments on benchmark test sets suggest that our approach rivals existing approaches.
