Branch-and-bound algorithms are adequate for the solution of a wide range of 0-1 knapsack problems. It is shown that the simplest method of branching is as good as any. However, problems with highly ...
Since Balas and Zemel in the 1980s introduced the so-called core problem as an efficient tool for solving the Knapsack Problem, all the most successful algorithms have applied this concept. Balas and ...
