Abstract: | A fully polynomial time approximation scheme (FPTAS) is presented for the classical 0-1 knapsack problem. The new approach considerably improves the necessary space requirements. The two best previously known approaches need O(n + 1/ 3) and O(n · 1/ ) space, respectively. Our new approximation scheme requires only O(n + 1/ 2) space while also reducing the running time. |
