An instance of the multiperiod binary knapsack problem (MPBKP) is given by a horizon length $T$, a non-decreasing vector of knapsack sizes $(c_1, \ldots, c_T)$ where $c_t$ denotes the cumulative size for periods $1,\ldots,t$, and a list of…
We consider the 0-1 Incremental Knapsack Problem (IKP) where the capacity grows over time periods and if an item is placed in the knapsack in a certain period, it cannot be removed afterwards. The contribution of a packed item in each time…

The Unbounded Knapsack Problem (UKP) is a well-known variant of the famous 0-1 Knapsack Problem (0-1 KP). In contrast to 0-1 KP, an arbitrary number of copies of every item can be taken in UKP. Since UKP is NP-hard, fully polynomial time…
