Abstract: INTRODUCTION A major unsolved problem is how to find the global minimum of a complicated function having a large number of local minima. This is a well known example of a NP-hard problem, which means that it can only be solved in a time that grows exponentially as a function of its size [1]. It arises in a variety of practical situations where one looks for an optimal solution that minimizes some cost function. Examples are: optimal wiring of electrical circuits, finding the shortest itinerary ... (Update)
