Abstract

We present a software tool, called EasySyn++, for the automatic synthesis of the source code for a set of stochastic local search (SLS) algorithms. EasySyn++ uses C++ as object language and relies on EasyLocal++, a C++ framework for the development of SLS algorithms. EasySyn++ is particularly suitable for the frequent case of having many neighborhood relations that are potentially useful.
