We describe a packing of T ∪ S hslice with height at most ( 3 / 2 + O (ε)) O PT (see Sect.3.1) into O ε ( 1 ) boxes. This packing leaves a free space of at least ( 1 / 2 + (cid:8)(ε)) O PT + a ( V )
H cont can be packed into a set of at most K (cid:3) = O ε (cid:3) ( 1 ) horizontal and ε (cid:3) -area containers, where each container is fully contained in some box from B

Improved Pseudo-Polynomial-Time Approximation for Strip Packing
It is possible to pack an extra rectangle ( free box ) of size ε 2 W × 12 O PT into the strip without increasing its final height
leading to at most (K/ε ) (K/ε ) O(1) containers. By the above construction, the sizes of the containers belong to a set that can be

claim holds for a subset of rectangles V (cid:3) of width at most δ · W such of vertical slices defined by V (cid:3) , namely V (cid:3) v slice , can be packed into the boxes
In the Strip Packing problem, we are given a vertical half-strip [0,W]×[0,+∞)\documentclass[12pt]{minimal}\usepackage{amsmath}\usepackage{wasysym}\usepackage{amsfonts}\usepackage{amssymb}\usepackage{amsbsy}\usepackage{mathrsfs}\usepackage{upgreek}\setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt}\begin{document}$$[0,W]\times [0,+\infty )$$\end{document} and a collection of open rectangles of width at most W. Our goal is to find an axis-aligned (non-overlapping) packing of such rectangles into the strip such that the maximum height OPT spanned by the packing is as small as possible. It is NP-hard to approximate this problem within a factor (3/2-ε)\documentclass[12pt]{minimal}\usepackage{amsmath}\usepackage{wasysym}\usepackage{amsfonts}\usepackage{amssymb}\usepackage{amsbsy}\usepackage{mathrsfs}\usepackage{upgreek}\setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt}\begin{document}$$(3/2-\varepsilon )$$\end{document} for any constant ε>0\documentclass[12pt]{minimal}\usepackage{amsmath}\usepackage{wasysym}\usepackage{amsfonts}\usepackage{amssymb}\usepackage{amsbsy}\usepackage{mathrsfs}\usepackage{upgreek}\setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt}\begin{document}$$\varepsilon >0$$\end{document} by a simple reduction from the Partition problem, while the current best approximation factor for it is (5/3+ε)\documentclass[12pt]{minimal}\usepackage{amsmath}\usepackage{wasysym}\usepackage{amsfonts}\usepackage{amssymb}\usepackage{amsbsy}\usepackage{mathrsfs}\usepackage{upgreek}\setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt}\begin{document}$$(5/3+\varepsilon )$$\end{document}. It seems plausible that Strip Packing admits a (3/2+ε)\documentclass[12pt]{minimal}\usepackage{amsmath}\usepackage{wasysym}\usepackage{amsfonts}\usepackage{amssymb}\usepackage{amsbsy}\usepackage{mathrsfs}\usepackage{upgreek}\setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt}\begin{document}$$(3/2+\varepsilon )$$\end{document}-approximation. We make progress in that direction by achieving such tight approximation guarantees for a special family of instances, which we call skewed instances. As standard in the area, for a given constant parameter δ>0\documentclass[12pt]{minimal}\usepackage{amsmath}\usepackage{wasysym}\usepackage{amsfonts}\usepackage{amssymb}\usepackage{amsbsy}\usepackage{mathrsfs}\usepackage{upgreek}\setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt}\begin{document}$$\delta >0$$\end{document}, we call large the rectangles with width at least δW\documentclass[12pt]{minimal}\usepackage{amsmath}\usepackage{wasysym}\usepackage{amsfonts}\usepackage{amssymb}\usepackage{amsbsy}\usepackage{mathrsfs}\usepackage{upgreek}\setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt}\begin{document}$$\delta W$$\end{document} and height at least δOPT\documentclass[12pt]{minimal}\usepackage{amsmath}\usepackage{wasysym}\usepackage{amsfonts}\usepackage{amssymb}\usepackage{amsbsy}\usepackage{mathrsfs}\usepackage{upgreek}\setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt}\begin{document}$$\delta OPT$$\end{document}, and skewed the remaining rectangles. If all the rectangles in the input are large, then one can easily compute the optimal packing in polynomial time (since the input can contain only a constant number of rectangles). We consider the complementary case where all the rectangles are skewed. This second case retains a large part of the complexity of the original problem; in particular, the skewed case is still NP-hard to approximate within a factor (3/2-ε)\documentclass[12pt]{minimal}\usepackage{amsmath}\usepackage{wasysym}\usepackage{amsfonts}\usepackage{amssymb}\usepackage{amsbsy}\usepackage{mathrsfs}\usepackage{upgreek}\setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt}\begin{document}$$(3/2-\varepsilon )$$\end{document}, and we provide an (almost) tight (3/2+ε)\documentclass[12pt]{minimal}\usepackage{amsmath}\usepackage{wasysym}\usepackage{amsfonts}\usepackage{amssymb}\usepackage{amsbsy}\usepackage{mathrsfs}\usepackage{upgreek}\setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt}\begin{document}$$(3/2+\varepsilon )$$\end{document}-approximation algorithm.
