Sim ulated nnealing Oscar ubo M edina (ocubo@ fi.upm.es) ased on Neighbourhood Search euristic derives from the verb heuriskein (ενρισκειν)which m eans to find aster than mathem aticaloptimization (branch & bound,simplex,etc) M eta m eans beyond,in an upper lever Meta-heuristics are strategies that guide the search process The goalis to explore the search space in order to find (near-)optimalsolutions Meta-heuristics are notproblem -specific The basic concepts ofm eta-heuristics perm itan abstract leveldescription They may incorporate mechanism s to avoid getting trapped in confined areas ofthe search space
