สรุป	Multi-Objective Ant Colony Optimization (MOACO) is a swarm-intelligence metaheuristic that extends the classic Ant Colony Optimization framework to simultaneously optimize two or more conflicting objectives. Artificial ants construct candidate solutions guided by pheromone trails and heuristic information, progressively building an archive of Pareto-optimal solutions rather than converging to a single best answer.	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.
