Chapter 7 in Knapsack Problems, 2004, pp 185-209 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Right from the beginning of research on the knapsack problem in the early six-ties separate considerations were devoted to problems where a number of identical copies of every item are given or even an unlimited amount of each item is available. The corresponding problems are known as the bounded and unbounded knapsack problem, respectively. Since there exists a considerable amount of theoretical, algorithmic and computational results which apply for only one of these two problems, we found it appropriate to deal with them in separate chapters. Hence, we restrict this chapter to the bounded case whereas the unbounded case will be treated in Chapter 8.
