A novel evolutionary approach for the bin packing problem (BPP) is presented. A simple steady-state genetic algorithm is developed that produces results comparable to other approa...
Given a set of rectangular pieces and a container of fixed width and variable length, the two-dimensional strip packing problem (2D-SPP) consists of orthogonally placing all the p...
In this paper, we present a rule-based modelling language for constraint programming, called Rules2CP. Unlike other modelling languages, Rules2CP adopts a single knowledge represen...
We consider the problem of partitioning a set of positive integers values into a given number of subsets, each having an associated cardinality limit, so that the maximum sum of v...

This paper addresses single and multiple container loading problems. We propose to use dynamic prioritization to handle awkward box types. The box type with a higher priority will...
