Abstract
This chapter presents the main concepts of metaheuristic schemes. The objective of this chapter is to introduce the characteristics and properties of these approaches. An important propose of this chapter is also to recognize the importance of metaheuristic methods to solve optimization problems in the cases in which traditional techniques are not suitable.
