Metaheuristic Optimization via Memory and Evolution

The book "Metaheuristic Optimization via Memory and Evolution: Tabu Search and Scatter Search" offers a comprehensive analysis and research on two significant optimization approaches: Tabu Search (TS) and Scatter Search (SS). These methods have proven to be extremely effective in solving a variety of optimization problems across different fields such as industry, science, and government. The authors, Cesar Rego and Bahram Alidaee, present original research works in this specialized book that focus on the algorithms and applications of TS and SS. Special attention is given to the concepts of adaptive memory programming, which are discussed in the individual chapters. Readers will find useful implementations, innovative approaches to integrating the principles of TS and SS, as well as new theoretical results and successful applications of these methods in practice.
