Such patterns are easier to cut, hence, they demand less machine time. They are of particular interest in high-demand settings when the machine is a bottleneck for production. We propose a heuristic and an exact method to determine such patterns. Both are two-phase methods: in the first phase, good combinations within strips are obtained and, afterwards, a good combination of strips is determined. Both methods outperform previous methods proposed in the literature, in terms of quality or in terms of computational times. %T Checkerboard patterns: proposals for its generation %@electronicmailaddress horacio@lac.inpe.br %@electronicmailaddress massaru@lac.inpe.br %K checkerboard pattern, enumerative algorithm, heuristic, productivity analysis. %@secondarytype PRE PI %@usergroup administrator %@usergroup marciana %@usergroup simone %@group LAC-INPE-MCT-BR %@group LAC-INPE-MCT-BR %@secondarykey INPE--PRE/ %@issn 0969-6016 %2 sid.inpe.br/iris@1916/2005/12.14.15.22.11 %@affiliation Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas Espaciais, Laboratório Associado de Computação e Matemática  Aplicada, (INPE, LAC) %@affiliation Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas Espaciais (INPE) %B International Transactions in Operational Research %@versiontype publisher %P 21-45 %4 sid.inpe.br/iris@1916/2005/12.14.15.22 %@documentstage not transferred %D 2005 %V 12 %A Yanasse, H.
