Modeling two-dimensional guillotine cutting problems via integer programming

F Furini, E Malaguti… - INFORMS Journal on …, 2016 - pubsonline.informs.org
We propose a framework to model general guillotine restrictions in two-dimensional cutting
problems formulated as mixed-integer linear programs (MIPs). The modeling framework …

Exact algorithms for the two-dimensional guillotine knapsack

M Dolatabadi, A Lodi, M Monaci - Computers & Operations Research, 2012 - Elsevier
The two-dimensional knapsack problem requires to pack a maximum profit subset of “small”
rectangular items into a unique “large” rectangular sheet. Packing must be orthogonal …

LP bounds in various constraint programming approaches for orthogonal packing

M Mesyagutov, G Scheithauer, G Belov - Computers & Operations …, 2012 - Elsevier
We consider the 2D orthogonal feasibility problem (OPP-2) and the 2D strip packing
