Special issue on hyper-heuristics in search and optimization
, 2010 First paragraph: A hyper-heuristic is an automated methodology for selecting or generating heuristics to solve hard computational search problems. The main feature distinguishing these methods is that they explore a search space of heuristics (rather ...
