Portuguese translation:problema mochila / problema knapsack
Explanation:
1.
It's a 'knapsack problem' with 'constraints', and appears to be from maths.

Approximation Algorithms for Knapsack Problems with Cardinality Constraints
European Journal of Operational Research 123 (2000), 333-345

EXTRACT: We address a variant of the classical knapsack problem in which an upper bound is imposed on the number of items that can be selected. This problem arises in the solution of real-life cutting stock problems by column generation, and may be used to separate cover inequalities with small support within cutting-plane approaches to integer linear programs."

Thank you so much for explaining it. I happened to find a site from USP that kept it as a "problema knapsack".
I'll put it like that.
Once again, thanks.
