  • Publication number: 20210232129
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to nesting sub-spaces for a machine tool by reading in evaluation criteria for an arrangement of nested sub-spaces, generating sequence data for an arrangement of nested sub-spaces, repeatedly performing a process until the result data exceeds a specified range. The process includes: generating evaluation data by evaluating the sequence data with an evaluation algorithm, generating result data based on a combinatorial logic of the evaluation data with the evaluation criteria, generating calculation data from the sequence data, the evaluation data, and the result data using the evaluation algorithm, generating further sequence data taking into account the calculation data with the evaluation algorithm, and repeating the process until the result data exceeds a specified range. The calculation data acts onto the generation of new sequence data to improve an arrangement of nested sub-spaces with respect to evaluation criteria.
