Σύνοψη	Simheuristics is a hybrid algorithmic framework that integrates Monte Carlo or discrete-event simulation into metaheuristic search procedures to solve stochastic combinatorial optimization problems. Introduced by Juan et al. in 2015, it addresses settings where objective function evaluations involve random variables, providing near-optimal solutions with probabilistic quality guarantees. The approach is especially suited for real-world logistics, transportation, and scheduling problems where uncertainty is inherent and classical deterministic solvers fail to capture variability.	Matheuristics is a class of hybrid optimization methods that tightly couple exact mathematical programming components—such as mixed-integer programming (MIP) solvers—with metaheuristic search procedures. Formally introduced and named by Maniezzo, Stützle, and Voß in 2009, the framework leverages the global-search capability of metaheuristics and the structural exploitation of mathematical programming to tackle large-scale combinatorial optimization problems that neither approach can solve effectively alone.
