Popis: In the two-dimensional guillotine cutting-stock problem, the objective is to minimize the number of large plates used to cut a list of small rectangles. We consider a variant of this problem, which arises in glass industry when different bills of order (or batches) are considered consecutively. For practical organization reasons, leftovers are not reused, except the large one obtained in the last cutting pattern of a batch, which can be reused for the next batch. The problem can be decomposed into an independent problem for each batch. In this paper, we focus on the one-batch problem, the objective of which is to minimize the total width of the cutting patterns used. We propose a diving heuristic based on column generation, in which the pricing problem is solved using dynamic programming (DP). This DP generates so-called non-proper columns, i.e. cutting patterns that cannot participate in a feasible integer solution of the problem. We show how to adapt the standard diving heuristic to this “non-proper” case while keeping its effectiveness. We also introduce the partial enumeration technique, which is designed to reduce the number of non-proper patterns in the solution space of the dynamic program. This technique strengthens the lower bounds obtained by column generation and improves the quality of the solutions found by the diving heuristic. Computational results are reported and compared on classical benchmarks from the literature as well as on new instances inspired from glass industry data. According to these results, variants of the proposed diving heuristic outperform constructive and evolutionary heuristics.
