We consider a real world generalization of the 2-Dimensional Guillotine Cutting Stock Problem arising in the wooden board cutting industry. A set of rectangular items has to be cut from rectangular stock boards, available in multiple formats. In addition to the classical objective of trim loss...

We consider a two-dimensional cutting stock problem where stock of different sizes is available, and a set of rectangular items has to be obtained through two-staged guillotine cuts. We propose a heuristic algorithm, based on column generation, which requires as its subproblem the solution of a...
