Consider a set of coins where each coin is either of the heavy type or the light type. The problem is to identify the type of each coin with minimal number of weighings on a balanced scale. The case that only one coin, called a counterfeit, has a different weight from others, is a classic mathematic

We study the following counterfeit coin problem: Suppose that there is a set of II coins. Each one is either heuuy or light. The goal is to sort them according to weight with a minimum number of weighings on a balance scale. Hu and Hwang gave an algorithm with a competitive ratio of 3 log 3 (all log
