Real-world problems are usually (if not always) considered hard to be solved because:

* Problems cannot always be represented and solved with a straightforward mathematical approach.
* A lot of parameters and constraints are involved.
* The number of possible solutions to a problem can be huge.
* Good solutions need to be found fast
* Checking every possible solution, for finding the best one, is time consuming and sometimes not  even feasible.
* The quality of a solution may vary]]>
