Simulated annealing has proved to be an easy and reliable method
for finding optimal values of a problem in cases where there is no
road map to possible solutions. Facts, Conjectures, and
Improvements for Simulated Annealing offers an introduction to this
topic for novices and provides an informative review of the area
for the more expert reader. This book brings together for the first
time many of the theoretical foundations for improvements to
algorithms for global optimization that until now existed only in
scattered research articles. The method described in this book
operates by simulating the cooling of a (usually fictitious)
physical system whose possible energies correspond to the values of
the objective function being minimized. The analogy works because
physical systems occupy only states with the lowest energy as the
temperature is lowered to absolute zero.
