| Abstract: | An infinite supply of pieces, with i.i.d. sizes, is packed under the Next-Fit pacling procedure. The first two moments of An, the number of bins to pack n pieces are computed when the piece sizes are uniformly distributed. A simple approximate pgf for An is also given, valid for general piece size distribution. |
