It provides a comprehensive understanding of Heuristic search, the applications of which are now widely used in a variety of industries including engineering, finance, sport, management and medicine. It intends to aid researchers and practitioners in solving complex combinatorial and global optimisation problems, and spark interest in this exciting decision science-based subject. It will provide the reader with challenging and lively methodologies through which they will be able to design and analyse their own techniques.Business information servicesOperations researchQuantitative researchAlgorithmsComputer scienceBusiness Information SystemsOperations Research and Decision TheoryData Analysis and Big DataAlgorithmsComputer ScienceBusiness information services.Operations research.Quantitative research.Algorithms.Computer science.Business Information Systems.Operations Research and Decision Theory.Data Analysis and Big Data.Algorithms.Computer Science.658.4038Salhi Saïdauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut882577BOOK9910164980803321Heuristic Search1971506UNINA
