Container loading is a pivotal function for operating supply chains efficiently.
Underperformance results in unnecessary costs (eg cost of additional containers to be …

Three‐dimensional cutting and packing problems have a range of important applications
and are of particular relevance to the transportation of cargo in the form of container loading …

In this paper, we address multiple container loading problems, consisting of placing
rectangular boxes, orthogonally and without overlap**, inside containers in order to …

This paper presents a Large Neighbourhood Search (LNS) algorithm that finds an effective
packing of a set of items into containers. The aim of the LNS algorithm is to provide packing …

Abstract The Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm is widely used to achieve optimum
solution in a short time in integer-based optimization problems. However, the complexity of …

With the development of online shop** and the demand for automated packaging
systems, we propose an Internet of Things (IoT)-based automated e-fulfillment packaging …

Efficient container loading has the potential to considerably reduce logistics and
transportation costs. The container loading problem is computationally complex and, despite …

This article is about seeking a good feasible solution in a reasonable amount of computation
time to the three-dimensional Multiple Bin Size Bin Packing Problem (MBSBPP). The …

The current global interest in improving the use of ever-scarcer natural resources calls for
the re-alignment of supply chain operations to include not only economic factors, but …

The aim of the Single Container Loading Problem (SCLP) is to pack three-dimensional
boxes into a three-dimensional container so as to maximize the volume utilization of the …
