Abstract. This article proposes a metaheuristic optimization/social simulation approach to find the optimal team for a given type of the project. The quality of the team is assessed in a black-box optimization environment, where the optimized function acts as a metaphor of the project to be completed within the certain time limit (number of fitness function evaluations) and each fitness function evaluation is considered to be a metaphor of a unit task.
