Researchers have introduced the Metabolic Multi-Agent Optimizer (MMAO), a novel adaptive metaheuristic framework designed for efficient search processes. MMAO operates on the principle of endogenous resource circulation, where search intensity, exploration-exploitation balance, and lifecycle turnover are managed by a central metabolic controller. The framework is characterized by bounded private energy, a communal budget, normalized rewards, continuous role adaptation, and resource-financed branching and pruning. Initial evaluations in both continuous and discrete domains, including benchmark problems like Sphere, Rastrigin, and the Traveling Salesperson Problem (TSP), demonstrate MMAO's adaptability across different problem types while maintaining a lean design.
