Leung and Defu Zhang}, country = {}, institution = {}, abstract = {This paper addresses a stock-cutting problem with rotation of items and without the guillotine cutting constraint. In order to solve the large-scale problem effectively and efficiently, we propose a simple but fast heuristic algorithm. It is shown that this heuristic outperforms the latest published algorithms for large-scale problem instances. }, journal = {International Journal of Computer and Information Engineering}, volume = {3}, number = {5}, year = {2009}, pages = {1341 - 1346}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/14129}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/29}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 29, 2009}, }
