Interface MoveManager

All Superinterfaces:

java.io.Serializable

public interface MoveManager

extends java.io.Serializable

The MoveManager determines which moves are available at any given time (or given solution). As a performance boost, you may want to consider reusing Moves after each iteration to avoid expensive instantiation.

Method Detail

getAllMoves

public Move[] getAllMoves(Solution solution)

This method should return an array of all possible moves to try at an iteration based on the passed current solution. Note that the moves generated should not depend on this exact solution object being the one to be operated on. It may be a copy of the current solution that is operated on.

Parameters:

solution - The current solution.

Returns:

All possible moves for this iteration from given solution
