Abstract

Approximation algorithms or simple heuristics are the normal way to go when we need fast results for a combinatorial optimization problem. However, when higher accuracy is needed and there is sufficient time to run a more detailed search algorithm, metaheuristics allow us to consistently find better solutions Martins and Ribeiro [2006]. Such metaheuristics provide a framework for intensification of global search that includes randomization as a basic strategy to explore the set of feasible solutions in an efficient way.
