Global Optimization is an area of study in mathematical terms in dealing with aspects of system optimizations based on a set criteria function. There are numerous applications of such optimization strategies towards finding a global optimal state within a set parametric constraint. There may even be many states within a given search space. And, there are formulated algorithms devised to provide ways of finding optimizations for various contextual domains. The below reference sources provide for more information in the area especially within the domains of natural computation.
