Mesd Heuristic Search Techniques 16888 2S0.77 Main Motivation for Heuristic Techniques: (1)To deal with local optima and not get trapped in them (2)To allow optimization for systems, where the design variables are not only continuous, but discrete

This 90 minutes lecture to be delivered via telelink addresses a class of MIT undergraduates unrolled in Engineering Design and Rapid Prototyping Course. The students have been introduced to the basic optimization concepts of design variables, design space, objective function
