Strike Limit Algorithm Optimisation: A Realistic Example
We illustrate a process for finding an improved variant of an aboriginal whaling management procedure strike limit algorithm (SLA), applying the merging and optimisation approach of Givens (1997; 1999a). A modified version of the SLA developed by Punt and Butterworth (1997) was chosen as the procedu...
