The problem of packing rectangles into several strips is considered. It is shown that for this problem there exist on-line algorithms with multiplicative error asymptotically close to 2e, where e is the base of the natural logarithm. It is proved that none of the on-line algorithms can have the asymptotic multiplicative error less than e.
