Abstract
This chapter deals with the fundamentals of the optimization. The concepts of stochastic optimization and how the stochastic optimization is advantageous over the deterministic approaches are described in Sect. 3.2. Heuristic and meta-heuristic optimization techniques are defined in Sect. 3.3, and it also presents various existing heuristic and meta-heuristic optimization techniques. The fundamentals of the swarm intelligence are given in Sect. 3.4. The applications of the swarm intelligence in various fields are also presented in this section.

A Survey of Computational Offloading in Cloud/Edge-based Architectures: Strategies, Optimization Models and Challenges

TL;DR: In this article, different offloading models are examined to identify the offloading parameters that need to be optimized, and compared several optimization techniques used to optimize offloading decisions, specifically Swarm Intelligence (SI) models, since they are best suited to the distributed aspect of edge computing.

Optimization by Simulated Annealing

TL;DR: There is a deep and useful connection between statistical mechanics and multivariate or combinatorial optimization (finding the minimum of a given function depending on many parameters), and a detailed analogy with annealing in solids provides a framework for optimization of very large and complex systems.

A simplex method for function minimization

TL;DR: A method is described for the minimization of a function of n variables, which depends on the comparison of function values at the (n 41) vertices of a general simplex, followed by the replacement of the vertex with the highest value by another point.
