Packing orders to pallets is one of the main problems faced by distributors and warehouse managers. The problem description is straightforward: a set of orders, typically boxes of almost rectangular shape with different size, stability and content-specific attributes, have to be packed to pallets of given dimensions for ease of transportation, storage, and display at stores. Finding the stacking sequence that achieves the best objectives is a daunting task, especially in the presence of a large number of items with varying specifications.

将订单包装到托盘是分销商和仓库管理人员面临的主要问题之一。问题描述很简单：一组订单，通常是具有不同大小，稳定性和内容特定属性的几乎矩形的盒子，必须包装到给定尺寸的托盘上，以便于运输，存储和在商店展示。找到实现最佳目标的堆叠顺序是一项艰巨的任务，特别是在存在大量不同规格的物品时。
