N2 - The Bin Packing Problem is one of the most important optimization problems. In recent years, due to its NP-hard nature, several approximation algorithms have been presented. It is proved that the best algorithm for the Bin Packing Problem has the approximation ratio 3/2 and the time order O(n), unless P=NP. In this paper, first, a 3/2-approximation algorithm is presented, then a modification to FFD algorithm is proposed to decrease time order to linear. Finally, these suggested approximation algorithms are compared with some other approximation algorithms. The experimental results show the suggested algorithms perform efficiently. In summary, the main goal of the research is presenting methods which not only enjoy the best theoretical criteria, but also perform considerably efficient in practice.
