Optimum off-line algorithms for the list update problem are investigated. The list update problem involves implementing a dictionary of items as a linear list. Several characterizations of optimum algorithms are given; these lead to optimum algorithm which runs in time 02"( n -1) !m, where n is the
An n-element knapsack problem has 2" possible solutions to search over, so a task which can be accomplished in 2" trials if an exhaustive search is used. Due to the exponential time in solving the knapsack problem, the problem is considered to be very hard. In the past decade, much effort has been d
