Presets
Simulated annealing borrows from metallurgy: at high temperature it accepts worse moves freely, letting it jump out of local minima; as it cools, it settles into the best valley it found. The acceptance probability exp(−ΔE/T) is the key. Cool too fast and it gets stuck; cool slowly and it finds the global optimum.

About this simulation
The full Simulated Annealing tool models a hospital roster with the same numerics engineers and scientists use — running entirely client-side. Change any parameter and the result updates in real time, so you can build intuition, check a design, or teach the concept without spreadsheets or installs.
