I need a meta-heuristic algorithm (genetic algorithm or any other meta-heuristic algorithm) for an optimization problem with only integer decision variables. Can anyone give me the code?
Dear Saeed Dadashzadeh,
I suggest you to see this link you can built your own code in Matlab for solving your problem.

Hi
You can find some of the evolutionary algorithms here

Why genetic algorithm? Your objective function is non-linear?
If it is not, you can solve your problem with the integer linear programming in Matlab, for example. I suggest you explore the optimization toolbox.
As long as we do not know more about the problem at hand, it is hard to give a reasonable answer. I agree with Yoel Marinez Gonzalez: why a genetic algorithm, as there are so many other optimization procedures, that might be more suitable.
And, the world abounds with meta-heuristic algorithms as well!
