Coordination of multi agent systems remains as a problem since there is noprominent method to completely solve this problem. Metaheuristic agents arespecific implementations of multi-agent systems, which imposes working togetherto solve optimisation problems with metaheuristic algorithms. The idea borrowedfrom swarm intelligence seems working much better than those implementationssuggested before. This paper reports the performance of swarms of simulatedannealing agents collaborating with particle swarm optimization algorithm. Theproposed approach is implemented for multidimensional knapsack problem and hasresulted much better than some other works published before.
