Basic Concepts
 Allows moves to inferior solutions in order not to get stuck in
a poor local optimum.
c = F(Snew) - F(Sold)
F has to be minimised
inferior solution (c > 0) still accepted if U  e

c
t
U is a random number from (0, 1) interval
t is a cooling parameter:
t is initially high - many moves are accepted
t is decreasing - inferior moves are nearly always rejected
• As the temperature decreases, the probability of accepting
worse moves decreases.
c > 0 inferior solution
-c < 0

Algorithm
Step 1.
k=1
Select an initial schedule S1 using some heuristic and set Sbest = S1
Select an initial temperature t0 > 0
Select a temperature reduction function (t)
Step 2.
Select ScN(Sk)
If F(Sbest) < F(Sc)
If F(Sc) < F(Sk) then Sk+1 = Sc
else
generate a random uniform number Uk

F ( Sc )  F ( S k )
t
If Uk < e
else Sk+1 = Sk
else Sbest = Sc
Sk+1 = Sc
then Sk+1 = Sc

Step 3.
tk = (t)
k = k+1 ;
If stopping condition = true then STOP
else go to Step 2

Apply the simulated annealing to the problem starting out with the
3, 1, 4, 2 as an initial sequence.
Neighbourhood: all schedules that can be obtained through
adjacent pairwise interchanges.
Select neighbours within the neigbourhood at random.
Choose (t) = 0.9 * t
t0 = 0.9
Use the following numbers as random numbers: 0.17, 0.91, ...

Sbest = S1 = 3, 1, 4, 2
F(S1) = wjTj = 1·7 + 14·11 + 12·0+ 12 ·25 = 461 = F(Sbest)
t0 = 0.9
Sc = 1, 3, 4, 2
F(Sc) = 316 < F(Sbest)
Sbest = 1, 3, 4, 2
F(Sbest) = 316
S2 = 1, 3, 4, 2
t = 0.9 · 0.9 = 0.81
Sc = 1, 3, 2, 4
F(Sc) = 340 > F(Sbest)

Practical considerations
Initial temperature
• must be "high"
• acceptance rate: 40%-60% seems to give good results
in many situations
Cooling schedule
• a number of moves at each temperature
• one move at each temperature
t =  ·t
 is typically in the interval [0.9, 0.99]
t
t
1  t
 is typically close to 0
Stopping condition
• given number of iterations
• no improvement has been obtained for a given number of iteration
