12.5 Multivariable Searches
• Local Search Space
• A topographical map shows the relationship between search parameters and cost values.
Figure 12.7 Local searches
• Global Search space. In this case the system becomes ’stuck’ in a local mimina.
Figure 12.8 Global searches
• Global Search space. In this case the system searches all maxim.

12.5.1 Algorithms
• The search algorithms change system parameters and try to lower system parameters.
• The main question is how to change the system paramters to minimize the system value.
