  • Published:
Cybernetics and Systems Analysis Aims and scope

Abstract

This paper deals with the problem of packing of rectangles in a given rectangle. Genetic algorithms are proposed for solving the problem. Some details of realization of the approach proposed are given and a high efficiency of the method of genetic algorithms is illustrated by two examples.
