In this paper we study the Multiple Strip Packing (MSP) problem, a generalization of the well-known Strip Packing problem. For a given set of rectangles,r1,...,rn, with heights and widths ≤ 1, the goal is to find a non-overlapping orthogonal packing without rotations intok∈ ℕ strips [0,1]×[0, ∞ ), minimizing the maximum of the heights. We present an approximation algorithm with absolute ratio 2, which is the best possible, unless, and an improvement of the previous best result with ratio 2 +ε. Furthermore we present simple shelf-based algorithms with short running-time and an AFPTAS for MSP. Since MSP is strongly-hard, an FPTAS is ruled out and an AFPTAS is also the best possible result in the sense of approximation theory.
