The case in which there are various types of objects available in stock in limited quantities is studied. A new heuristic method based on the evolutionary algorithm concept is proposed to solve the problem. This heuristic is empirically analyzed by solving randomly generated instances and the results are compared with other methods from the literature.115-127enginteger optimizationcutting stock problemevolutionary algorithmArtigo10.1111/j.1475-3995.2009.00760.xWOS:000294307600007Acesso restrito0000-0002-4762-2048
