Abstract:
In this paper, we propose a heuristic algorithm based on concave corner (BCC) for the two-dimensional rectangular single large packing problem (2D-SLBPP), and compare it against some heuristic and metaheuristic algorithms from the literature. The experiments show that our algorithm is highly competitive and could be considered as a viable alternative, for 2D-SLBPP. Especially for large test problems, the algorithm could get satisfied results more quickly than other approaches in literature.
Keywords and phrases:rectangular packing, heuristic, best-fit, concave corner, fitness value.
