  2. Knapsack problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knapsack_problem

    A 1999 study of the Stony Brook University Algorithm Repository showed that, out of 75 algorithmic problems related to the field of combinatorial algorithms and algorithm engineering, the knapsack problem was the 19th most popular and the third most needed after suffix trees and the bin packing problem.

  3. List of knapsack problems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_knapsack_problems

    The knapsack problem is one of the most studied problems in combinatorial optimization, with many real-life applications. For this reason, many special cases and generalizations have been examined. For this reason, many special cases and generalizations have been examined.

  4. Change-making problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Change-making_problem

    One variation of this problem assumes that the people making change will use the "greedy algorithm" for making change, even when that requires more than the minimum number of coins. Most current currencies use a 1-2-5 series , but some other set of denominations would require fewer denominations of coins or a smaller average number of coins to ...

  5. Continuous knapsack problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous_knapsack_problem

    The continuous knapsack problem may be solved by a greedy algorithm, first published in 1957 by George Dantzig, [2] [3] that considers the materials in sorted order by their values per unit weight. For each material, the amount x i is chosen to be as large as possible:

  6. Knapsack auction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knapsack_auction

    A knapsack auction is an auction in which several identical items are sold, and there are several bidders with different valuations interested in different amounts of items. The goal is to choose a subset of the bidders with a total demand, at most, the number of items and, subject to that, a maximum total value.

  7. Greedy algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greedy_algorithm

    A greedy algorithm is any algorithm that follows the problem-solving heuristic of making the locally optimal choice at each stage. [1] In many problems, a greedy strategy does not produce an optimal solution, but a greedy heuristic can yield locally optimal solutions that approximate a globally optimal solution in a reasonable amount of time.
