Abstract
A method for optical data processing, based on the mode of multipulse excitation of photon echo signals, has been proposed and applied to solution of the knapsack problem. In this case, along with the recognition of solvability, the solution itself is found in the optical processor. A scheme of a possible optical echo processor on molecular iodine vapor is presented.
