Metaheuristics for the Minimum Time Cut Path Problem with Different Cutting and Sliding Speeds

The problem of efficiently cutting smaller two-dimensional pieces from a larger surface is recurrent in several manufacturing settings. This problem belongs to the domain of cutting and packing (C&P) problems. This study approached a category of C&P problems called the minimum time cut path...
