An optimal algorithm for rectangle placement
In this paper we consider the problem of placing eeciently a rectangle in a two-dimensional layout that may not have the bottom-left placement property. This problem arises when we apply any one of a number of iterative improvement algorithms to the cutting stock problem or its variants. Chazelle has given an O(n)-time placement algorithm when the layout has the bottom-left property; we extend ...
متن کاملWirelength Optimal Rectangle Packings
Finding wirelength optimal packings of rectangles is a well known problem in VLSI design. We propose a branch and bound algorithm for this problem that is based on the rectangle packing algorithm of Moffitt and Pollack. It makes use of a very efficient implementation of an incremental network simplex algorithm. Our algorithm allows for the first time to find optimum solutions of three instances...
متن کاملOptimal rectangle packing
We consider the NP-complete problem of finding an enclosing rectangle of minimum area that will contain a given a set of rectangles. We present two different constraintsatisfaction formulations of this problem. The first searches a space of absolute placements of rectangles in the enclosing rectangle, while the other searches a space of relative placements between pairs of rectangles. Both appr...
متن کاملOptimal Rectangle Packing: New Results
We present new results on the problem of finding an enclosing rectangle of minimum area that will contain a given a set of rectangles. Many simple scheduling tasks can be modelled by this NP-complete problem. We present a new lower bound on the amount of wasted space in a partial solution, a new dominance condition that prunes many partial solutions, and extend our algorithms to packing unorien...
متن کاملOptimal Rectangle Packing: Initial Results
Given a set of rectangles with fixed orientations, we want to find an enclosing rectangle of minimum area that contains them all with no overlap. Many simple scheduling tasks can be modelled by this NP-complete problem. We use an anytime branch-and-bound algorithm to solve the problem optimally. Our main contributions are a lower-bound on the amount of wasted space in a partial solution, based ...
