The guillotine problem is a problem in combinatorial geometry and in printing.
Closely related to packing problems and specifically to cutting stock and bin packing problems,[1] it is the question of how to get the maximum number of sheets of one rectangular size out of a larger sheet, only orthogonal cuts that bisect one component of the sheet are allowed, as on a paper cutting guillotine.
The Guillotine problem is important in glass machining. Glass sheets are scored along horizontal and vertical lines and then broken along these lines to obtain smaller panels.[2]
Like the cutting stock problem, it is NP hard, but various approximate and exact solutions have been devised.[3][4][5]
