Abstract

The paper presents a multiple objective metaheuristic procedure -Pareto Simulated Annealing. The goal of the procedure is to find in a relatively short time a “good” approximation of the set of efficient solutions of a multiple objective combinatorial optimization problem. The procedure uses a sample of generating solutions. Each of the solutions explores its neighborhood in a way similar to that of classical simulated annealing. Weights of the objectives are set in each iteration in order to assure a tendency to approach the efficient solutions set while maintaining a uniform distribution of the generating solutions over this set.
