I have been looking at iterated local search and memetic algorithm recently. Both algorithms have some form of perturbations and apply a local search. It appears that pattern is present in both algorithm. So is an iterated local search a kind of memetic algorithm? Or a memetic algorithm a kind of iterated local search? 

What is your opinion?

Many thanks in advanced for your contributions.
