OVERVIEW
Optimization deals with betterment and improvement.
Optimization is defined as “the process of achieving the most favorable system
condition on the basis of a metric or set of metrics [Merriam-Webster, 1998].

OPTIMIZATION------WHY?????
Soft constraints are those constraints that are negotiable to some degree.
These constraints can be viewed as goals that are associated with target values.
OPTIMIZATION MODEL
Constraints vs. Objectives
It can be difficult to choose whether a condition is a constraint or an objective.
For example, to minimize the mass of some structure or to maximize the speed of
an object can be an objective function.
To find X =
which minimizes f(X)
•The ant colony algorithm can be run continuously and can adapt to
changes in real time.
