Recently an interesting evolutionary mechanism, sensibility, inherited from a concept model
of Free Search (FS) was introduced and used for solving network problems. Unfortunately,
the original FS is not easy to implement because it requires key knowledge that is not clearly
defined in the existing literature to determine the neighborhood space that profoundly affects
the performance of the original FS. This paper thus designs a new implementation for the
concept model of FS, and proposes a new algorithm, called Free Search with Adaptive …
