I've researched this, a long time ago (trying to find a solution for a
problem from the "worse" class). Even then, several results could be found
in the literature for the "cutting sheet" problem for rectangles, showing
that certain parameters (w.r.t. to rectangle dimensions being multiples of
each other, replication factors, etc.) influence the problem space
considerably. (Cutting random rectangles from a sheet is hardly an industry
problem.)
Having said that, drools-solver should be able to handle this problem.
However, it is very likely that there is an algorithm that solves your
particular problem more efficiently.
