The one-dimensional cutting stock problem (1D-CSP) and the twodimensional two-stage guillotine constrained cutting problem (2D-2CP) are considered in this paper. The Gilmore-Gomory model of these problems has a very strong continuous relaxation which provides a good bound in an LP-based solution approach. In recent years, there have been several efforts to attack the one-dimensional problem by ...

In the cutting stock pattern minimisation problem, we wish to satisfy demand for various customer reels by cutting as few as possible jumbo reels, and further to minimise the number of distinct cutting patterns used. We focus on the special case in which any two customer reels t into a jumbo, but no three do: this case is of interest partly because it is the simplest case that is not trivial, a...

Cutting and packing problems occur in many real-world applications such as industrial glass, paper or steel cutting, container loading and VLSI design [1]. In this work we consider in particular the two-dimensional cutting stock problem with variable sheet size (2CSV) in which we are given a set of nE rectangular element types E = {1, . . . , nE}, each i ∈ E specified by a height hi ∈ N, a widt...

Cutting stock problem (CSP) is a of cutting an object into several smaller objects to fulfill the existing demand with minimum unused remaining. Besides minimizing remaining object, sometimes there another additional in CSP, namely number different patterns. This happens because setup cost for each pattern. study shows way obtain patterns (CSP). An example modeled linear programming and then so...
