Metaheuristics have been a very active research topic for more than
two decades. During this time many new metaheuristic strategies
have been devised, they have been experimentally tested and
improved on challenging benchmark problems, and they have proven to
be important tools for tackling optimization tasks in a large
number of practical applications. In other words, metaheuristics
are nowadays established as one of the main search paradigms for
tackling computationally hard problems. Still, there are a large
number of research challenges in the area of metaheuristics. These
challenges range from more fundamental questions on theoretical
properties and performance guarantees, empirical algorithm
analysis, the effective configuration of metaheuristic algorithms,
approaches to combine metaheuristics with other algorithmic
techniques, towards extending the available techniques to tackle
ever more challenging problems. This edited volume grew out of the
contributions presented at the ninth Metaheuristics International
Conference that was held in Udine, Italy, 25-28 July 2011. The
conference comprised 117 presentations of peer-reviewed
contributions and 3 invited talks, and it has been attended by 169
delegates. The chapters that are collected in this book exemplify
contributions to several of the research directions outlined above.
