Abstract

We consider the problem of optimally filling a knapsack of fixed capacity by choosing from among a collection of n objects of randomly determined weight and value. Under very mild conditions on the common joint distribution of weight and value, we determine the asymptotic value of the optimal knapsack, for large n.
