The?rstarticleinthisbook-aninvitedcontributionbyStefanVoss-givesan overviewofthesemethods. ThebookisbasedonthecontributionstotheWorkshoponLocalSearchfor Planning&Scheduling,heldonAugust21,2000atthe14thEuropeanCon- renceonArti?cialIntelligence(ECAI2000)inBerlin,Germany. Theworkshop broughttogetherresearchersfromtheplanningandschedulingcommunitiesto explorethesetopicswithrespecttolocalsearchprocedures.
