This paper solves the binary single-constrained Knapsack Problem (KP) and undertakes a sensitivity analysis of its optimum solution. Given a knapsack of capacity c, and a set of n items, with each item j, j = 1,…,n, characterised by a weight wj and a profit pj, the binary...

This paper solves the binary single-constrained Knapsack Problem (KP) and undertakes a sensitivity analysis of its optimum solution. Given a knapsack of capacity c, and a set of n items, with each item j, j = 1,?,n, characterised by a weight wj and a profit pj, the binary single-constrained KP...

In this paper, we study the sensitivity analysis of the optimum of the knapsack sharing problem (KSP) to the perturbation of the weight of an arbitrary item. We determine the interval limits of the weight of each perturbed item using a heuristic approach which reduces the original problem to a...
