Abstract
In this chapter we will start to focus on operational aspects of (Fuzzy) ASA and how to use it for practical purposes. Several detailed examples of unconstrained problems will be presented, aiming to show the readers how to benefit from using the method in their own tasks. Initially, an overview of Fuzzy ASA will be shown and, after that, many cost functions will be defined and minimized with ASA and Fuzzy ASA, being the results compared in each case.
