Abstract
In this chapter a summary of the features of all the techniques discussed up to this point is given. The aim is to draw general guidelines on the choice of the most suitable techniques for a given optimization process. It is stressed out that an optimization process should not be a one-shot application of a certain algorithm. It must generally be composed of different steps, if not all, of the optimization theory used jointly. This is due to the fact that each topic in optimization theory has its own scope that should be exploited knowledgeably.
Est modus in rebus.There is a measure in everything.
