This paper discusses some of the basic formulation issues and solution procedures for solving one- and two-dimensional cutting stock problems. Linear programming, sequential heuristic and hybrid solution procedures are described. For two-dimensional cutting stock problems with rectangular shapes, the authors also propose an approach for solving large problems with limits on the number of times an ordered size may appear in a pattern.
