Problem MetaHeuristic Solver. An educational tool aimed at studying heuristic optimization methods

In this paper, we introduce Problem MetaHeuristic Solver (PMHS), a new educational software tool aimed at the generic study of the concepts related to the optimization field. Its relevance in this environment arises from the performed coverage of the main stages when solving optimization problems. I...
