Abstract

Search and optimization technologies underpin the development of decision support systems in a wide variety of applications across industry, commerce, science and government. There is a significant level of diversity among optimization and computational search applications. This can be evidenced by noting that a small selection of applications includes transport scheduling, bioinformatics optimization, personnel rostering, medical decision support and timetabling. Later in this introduction we present some recent survey papers for some of these areas and more examples of relevant applications are available in Pardalos and Resende (2002) and Leung (2004).
