Packing of (0, 1)-matrices

The MATRIX PACKING DOWN problem asks to find a row permutation of a given $\left(0,1\right)$-matrix in such a way that the total sum of the first non-zero column indexes is maximized. We study the computational complexity of this problem. We prove that the MATRIX PACKING DOWN problem is NP-complete even when restricted to zero trace symmetric $\left(0,1\right)$-matrices or to $\left(0,1\right)$-matrices with at most two $1$’s per column. Also, as intermediate results, we introduce several new simple graph layout problems which are proved to be NP-complete.
