5 Conclusions and Future Research
This work revised a heuristic to determine an integer solution to one-dimensional cutting stock problems and extend it to two-dimensional problems. Real-world instances from a Brazilian metallic frameworks industry were solved. The proposed heuristic was able to improve several instances’ solution. For future research we intend to analyze more instances from the industry and also test some modifications on the heuristic proposed which were successful when applied to solve one-dimensional problems. Also, we intend to compare the proposed approach with the one by Riehme et al. 1996.
