Abstract

This paper describes work on the application of optimization techniques in software engineering. These optimization techniques come from the operations research and metaheuristic computation research communities. The paper briefly reviews widely used optimization techniques and the key ingredients required for their successful application to software engineering, providing an overview of existing results in eight software engineering application domains. The paper also describes the benefits that are likely to accrue from the growing body of work in this area and provides a set of open problems, challenges and areas for future work
