Computational Enhancement in the Application of the Branch and Bound Method for Linear Integer Programs and Related Models [PDF]
International Journal of Mathematical, Engineering and Management Sciences, 2019 In this paper, a reformulation that was proposed for a knapsack problem has been extended to single and bi-objective linear integer programs. A further reformulation by adding an upper bound constraint for a knapsack problem is also proposed and extended

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Optimal allocation of resources to the management of biosecurity risk, threatened species conservation or natural hazards such as bushfires is imperative—because program budgets are usually finite and, therefore, constrained. However, effectively dividing resources among management activities to achieve the greatest benefit remains a ...

Using incentive payments to promote human–carnivore coexistence
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract For many large carnivores, minimizing the financial burden they impose on local people is critical to their conservation. Incentive‐based programs that provide people with financial benefits for taking pro‐conservation actions or achieving conservation goals are a promising tool for promoting human–carnivore coexistence. Although the number of

Knapsack Problem Solution based on Knapsack Packing Tree Search
Безопасность информационных технологий, 2014 A number of asymmetric cryptosystems (including one of the very first asymmetric cryptosystems – the Merkle–Hellman cryptosystem) are based on the knapsack problem.

Cryptanalysis of Knapsack Cipher Using Genetic Algorithm [PDF]
Al-Rafidain Journal of Computer Sciences and Mathematics, 2007 This research offers a new method in Cryptanalysis of knapsack cipher. It focuses on the application of genetic algorithm as a modern way in solving complex problems (problems have a huge numbers of alternate solutions in appropriate time).

Exploring drivers and costs of partial trans‐Saharan migration in juvenile vultures
Ibis, EarlyView.Partial migration occurs when only a subset of individuals within a population undertakes a migratory journey. The decision to migrate can be influenced by intrinsic traits (e.g. sex or physical condition) as well as by extrinsic factors (e.g. social environment or resource availability).

Multiobjective Knapsack Problem with Equity Concerns
Gazi Üniversitesi Fen Bilimleri Dergisi, 2018 In this paper, a multi-objective mathematical modeling approach has been developed for resource distribution problem which has equity concerns. We assume that the preference model of the decision maker satisfies properties related to inequity-aversion ...

, 2018 We study the following multiagent variant of the knapsack problem. We are given a set of items, a set of voters, and a value of the budget; each item is endowed with a cost and each voter assigns to each item a certain value.
