I would like to write the program for packaging calculation. To find the maximum number of single-size box into outer box.
Could you please advise the basic concept for this calculation?

Many thanks in advance for all advice!

Sounds like a typical homework problem for a programming class... do you have an algorithm in mind?

if each piece can be assumed to be a parallelepipedon:
Try each possible orientations.
Else try to fit 2 units into a common PE.
