Abstract

A hybrid heuristic algorithm for the two-dimensional rectangular packing problem is presented. This algorithm is mainly based on divide-and-conquer and greedy strategies. The computational results on a class of benchmark problems have shown that the performance of the heuristic algorithm can outperform that of quasi-human heuristics.
