Abstract: This paper considers the nonlinear fractional knapsack problem and demonstrates how its solution can be effectively applied to two resource allocation problems dealing with the World Wide ...

Mathematicians just made a big leap forward on one of the field’s all-time favorite problems. Curves—squiggly lines through space, such as a comet’s trajectory or a stock market trend—are some of math ...

Abstract: This paper proposes a multitask knapsack problem framework as a discrete test suite that allows for the independent adjustment of both objective and constraint similarities among tasks. The ...
