description Strip packing is a well-known NP-hard problem and it was widely applied in engineering fields. This paper considers a two-dimensional orthogonal strip packing problem. Until now some exact algorithm and mainly heuristics were proposed for two-dimensional orthogonal strip packing problem. While this paper proposes a two-stage hybrid algorithm for it. In the first stage, a heuristic algorithm based on layering idea is developed to construct a solution. In the second stage, a great deluge algorithm is used to further search a better solution. Computational results on several classes of benchmark problems have revealed that the hybrid algorithm improves the results of layer-heuristic, and can compete with other heuristics from the literature.
