    We consider sequential random packing of integral translate of cubes [0,N]n[0,N]^n into the torus Zn/2NZnZ^n / 2NZ^n. Two special cases are of special interest: (i) The case N=2N=2 which corresponds to a discrete case of tilings (considered in \cite{cubetiling,book}) (ii) The case N=N=\infty corresponds to a case of continuous tilings (considered in \cite{combincubepack,book}) Both cases correspond to some special combinatorial structure and we describe here new developments.Comment: 5 pages, conference pape

    In this paper we report on the full classification of Dirichlet-Voronoi polyhedra and Delaunay subdivisions of five-dimensional translational lattices. We obtain a complete list of 110244110244 affine types (L-types) of Delaunay subdivisions and it turns out that they are all combinatorially inequivalent, giving the same number of combinatorial types of Dirichlet-Voronoi polyhedra. Using a refinement of corresponding secondary cones, we obtain 181394181394 contraction types. We report on details of our computer assisted enumeration, which we verified by three independent implementations and a topological mass formula check.Comment: 16 page
