The purpose of this book is to present the main metaheuristics and
approximate and stochastic methods for optimization of complex systems
in Engineering Sciences. It has been written within the framework of the
European Union project ERRIC, which is funded by the EU’s FP7
Research Potential program and has been developed in co-operation
between French and Romanian teaching researchers. Through the principles
of various proposed algorithms (with additional references) this book
allows the reader to explore various methods of implementation such as
metaheuristics, local search and populationbased methods. It examines
multi-objective and stochastic optimization, as well as methods and
tools for computer-aided decision-making and simulation for
decision-making.
