title = "A comparative study of simulated annealing and genetic algorithms",
abstract = "The aim of this work is to present two algorithms designed to optimise the cutting process of an L-type guillotine and to minimise the number of sheets used to manufacture a number of rectangular pieces. Two algorithms are proposed, one based on Genetic Algorithms and the other on Simulated Annealing. They are compared with the help of a bank of examples. Both algorithms provide very good results, although each of them has its peculiarities, which are described in this work.",
