Reproducibility dataset for a new mixed-integer programming model for irregular strip packing based on vertical slices
Description
This dataset introduces a detailed reproducibility protocol to allow the exact replication of the experiments on Mixed-Integer Programming (MIP) model for irregular strip packing reported in our primary work. Likewise, this dataset provides all raw output data from our experiments used in our primary work. Our reproducibility protocol is based on our RAMNEST V1R1 Java software library of MIP models for irregular strip packing. Our software library implements our new family of NFP-CM-VS MIP models for irregular strip packing and the family of state-of-the-art NFP-CM models introduced by Cherri et al. (2016) and Rodrigues et al. (2017). We evaluate six MIP models in 35 small problem instances and 11 large ones, as detailed in the experimental setup of our work. All MIP models are implemented in our Java software library and solved using the Java API of Gurobi 9.5 with its default parameters. Thus, the use of our software requires the installation of an academic or commercial license of Gurobi 9.5 for UBUNTU. This dataset includes the Java source code and pre-compiled binaries of our software library developed with Netbeans 8.2 for UBUNTU.
