Packing is a research area that focuses on the arrangement of objects within a given space in an efficient and optimal manner. This field is concerned with finding the best way to pack objects into containers or bins while minimizing wasted space and maximizing efficiency. Packing research often involves developing algorithms and techniques for solving various packing problems, such as the bin packing problem, the knapsack problem, and the pallet loading problem. This area of study has applications in logistics, manufacturing, transportation, and computer science.
