Σύνοψη	Agent-Based Tabu Search (ABTS) embeds the tabu search metaheuristic inside a multi-agent framework where autonomous agents each run independent or cooperating tabu search threads, sharing promising solutions to escape local optima and collectively explore large combinatorial or continuous search spaces more effectively than a single-thread implementation.	Multi-objective Tabu Search (MOTS) is a metaheuristic algorithm that extends the classic Tabu Search framework to simultaneously optimize two or more conflicting objective functions. Instead of a single optimum, it seeks to approximate the Pareto front — the set of solutions where no objective can be improved without worsening another — making it suitable for complex combinatorial and continuous optimization problems in engineering, logistics, and operations research.
