Objectives |
Students have a competent knowledge of existing heuristic and metaheuristic methods used in logistics applications. They know basic design concepts of heuristics and metaheuristics. They are able to design, implement and test simple heuristics and metaheuristics for planning problems on their own. Furthermore students know statistical methods for evaluation of heuristic and metaheuristic results.
