Abstract
In this paper, we present an O( n log n) algorithm to compute a tight lower bound for the one-dimensional bin packing problem. We have simulated the algorithm on randomly generated bin packing problems with item sizes drawn uniformly from ( a, b), where 0 ⩽ a < b ⩽ B and B is bin size. Using our lower bound, the average error of BFD is less than 2%. For a + b ⩾ B, the error is less than 0.003%.
