IBM ILOG Dispatcher User's Manual > Developing Dispatcher Applications > Developing Your Own First Solution Heuristics

In this lesson, you will learn how to:

Dispatcher offers a variety of predefined heuristics for use in generating a first solution. To better understand which predefined first solution heuristics to use with your problem, see "Using the predefined first solution heuristics". The process of writing a simple first solution heuristic gives you a better understanding of the concepts. See "Creating your own first solution heuristic". Dispatcher also provides an open framework to define custom first solution heuristics. See "Using the Dispatcher First Solution Framework"
