This repository contains all the supplementary material accompanying the paper Algorithms for the Bin Packing Problem with Overlapping Items, to appear in Computers & Industrial Engineering (full reference at https://authors.elsevier.com/tracking/article/details.do?aid=4952&jid=CAIE&surname=Grange). It comprises:

• A dataset of 10986 random instances distributed in 1831 JSON files.
• The Python 2.7 implementation of our algorithms. This code was mainly written for internal use. It is provided as is, without any guarantee, maintenance or further support.
• Our numerical analysis of this dataset. This so-called Jupyter Notebook is self-contained and interactive. Reevaluating its cells, testing another ideas or carrying out your own experiments may require some installations on your machine. We recommend using the Anaconda Distribution, which installs Python, the Jupyter Notebook, and other commonly used packages for scientific computing and data science.
