Description

In today's global and competitive environment, the use of scarce resources in the best possible way is more important than ever, and time is one of the critical resources for almost all problems. In this book chapter, we tried to show how efficient and effective results can be obtained using meta-heuristic methods, specifically TS. According to editorial of European Journal of Operational Research (EJOR) (Editorial, 2007), meta-heuristic research efforts seem to be aimed at two main areas of application: production/scheduling problems and logistics problems. Other domains of applications in a related issue of EJOR are finance, product design, bio-computing and data mining. A common feature seen is that authors use hybrid meta-heuristics to acquire efficient tailormade solution approaches. Hybrid approaches seem to have better performance in some problems motivating researchers to focus on hybrid meta-heuristic usage. For example, Ting et al. (2003) presented a work focusing on a novel mating strategy, called tabu genetic algorithm (TGA). TGA integrates tabu search (TS) into GA's selection. Structures of GA and TS are not modified in these approaches. It is shown that in contrast to running GA and TS alternately, TGA implants characteristics of TS like aspiration into GA's mating strategy. It is concluded that TGA outperforms GA, TS, and conventional hybrids of GA and TS, in terms of solution quality and convergence speed. Glover (2007) mentions that from the beginning of TS journey to present enabled us to solve many kinds of optimization problems effectively although there is a long way to go. Glover suggests focusing on human memory usage to understand how it affects problem solving, so that these features can be incorporated to TS memory. For this case psychology and heuristics fields should engage in new projects.
