Abstract :
The 0-1 knapsack problem is considered. A parallel dynamic programming multi-method using dominance technique and processor cooperation is proposed. Different load balancing approaches are studied. Computational experiments carried out on an Origin 3800 supercomputer are reported and analyzed.
