Glover has been the first author to introduce an extra constraint, related to the sum of the variables fixed at 1 at the optimum, for solving 0-1 linear programming problems with implicit enumeration methods. In this paper, the authors propose a new algorithm to compute tight bounds of this sum for the 0-1 multidimensional knapsack problem. The method is based on the exact solution of the
