“…One‐dimensional cutting/packing problems that allow the provision of residual pieces have been studied by different authors (Roodman, ; Scheithauer, ; Gradisar et al., , ; Sinuany‐Stern and Weiner, ; Gradisar and Trkman, ; Trkman and Gradisar, ; Cherri et al., , ; Dimitriadis and Kehris, ; Cui and Yang, ; Bang‐Jensen and Larsen, ). Examples of applications of one‐dimensional cutting problems with usable leftovers were reported in, for example, the textile industry (Gradisar et al., ), the agricultural light aircraft manufacturing (Abuabara and Morabito, ), and the wood‐processing industry (Koch et al., ). To the best of our knowledge, all studies reported in the literature focused on one‐dimensional residual bin‐packing problems, the exception being the recent published paper (Andrade et al., ) that deals with two‐dimensional nonguillotine cutting problems with usable leftovers.…”
