Applications of genetic search and simulated annealing to the two-dimensional non-guillotine cutting stock problem
We applied a genetic algorithm and a simulated annealing approach to the two-dimensional non-guillotine cutting stock problem and carried out experimentation on several test cases. The performance and efficiency of these two heuristic algorithms on this problem were compared. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
