In this paper, we extend the knapsack problem to include more realistic situations by treating the rewards (or values) associated with each item included in the solution as random variables with ...

The number of available items is infinite (unbounded).<BR><BR>I've implemented a few of the usual solutions to this problem using recursion/memoization and dynamic programming but the solutions do ...
