Samenvatting	Multi-Objective Simulated Annealing (MOSA) extends the classical simulated annealing metaheuristic to problems with two or more conflicting objective functions. Instead of converging to a single optimum, MOSA explores the solution space stochastically and maintains an archive of non-dominated (Pareto-optimal) solutions, offering decision-makers a diverse trade-off front rather than one prescribed answer.	Multi-Objective Optimization (MOO) is a mathematical and computational framework for finding solutions that simultaneously optimize two or more conflicting objective functions. Rather than collapsing all goals into a single scalar, MOO produces a set of trade-off solutions — the Pareto front — from which a decision-maker selects according to preference. It is widely used in engineering design, operations research, logistics, economics, and policy analysis.
