For each item from largest to smallest, find the first bin into which the item fits, if any. If such a bin is found, put the new item in it. Otherwise, open a new empty bin put the new item in it. In short: FFD orders the items by descending size, and then calls first-fit bin packing. An equivalent description of the FFD algorithm is as follows.
The first-fit algorithm uses the following heuristic: It keeps a list of open bins, which is initially empty. When an item arrives, find the first bin into which the item can fit, if any. If such a bin is found, the new item is placed inside it. Otherwise, a new bin is opened and the coming item is placed inside it.
Therefore, Next-Fit-Increasing has the same performance as Next-Fit-Decreasing. [26] Modified first-fit-decreasing (MFFD) [27], improves on FFD for items larger than half a bin by classifying items by size into four size classes large, medium, small, and tiny, corresponding to items with size > 1/2 bin, > 1/3 bin, > 1/6 bin, and smaller items ...

The algorithm uses as a subroutine, an algorithm called first-fit-decreasing bin packing (FFD). The FFD algorithm takes as input the same set S of numbers, and a bin-capacity c. It heuristically packs numbers into bins such that the sum of numbers in each bin is at most C, aiming to use as few bins as possible.
Best-fit is an online algorithm for bin packing. Its input is a list of items of different sizes. Its output is a packing - a partition of the items into bins of fixed capacity, such that the sum of sizes of items in each bin is at most the capacity. Ideally, we would like to use as few bins as possible, but minimizing the number of bins is an ...

In a bin packing problem, people are given: A container, usually a two- or three-dimensional convex region, possibly of infinite size. Multiple containers may be given depending on the problem. A set of objects, some or all of which must be packed into one or more containers. The set may contain different objects with their sizes specified, or ...
