               <mods:abstract>This PhD thesis addresses the challenge of developing a tool to provide algorithmic recommendation to end users (experts in the problem domain but not experts in multi-objective algorithms) without the need of a resource-intensive process of auto-configuration. This challenge is faced with an approach based on previous knowledge about the problems.&#xd;
&#xd;
A semantic model, moody, is designed to formally define knowledge in the field of multi-objective optimization with metaheuristics, with a focus on the relevant concepts required to characterize problems and the performance of algorithms.&#xd;
&#xd;
moorphology is developed as a tool to provide landscape characteristics of the search and objective spaces of multi-objective problems. These landscape characteristics are a key factor for the computation of a similarity metric between multi-objective problems, which are a necessity to provide recommendations based on previous knowledge.&#xd;
&#xd;
To generate in an efficient way the required knowledge to implement the recommendation engine, a meta-optimization approach is presented as the software tool Evolver. This tool allows the automatic configuration of metaheuristics by defining it as an optimization problem.&#xd;
&#xd;
Large language models are evaluated for the task of helping domain experts in implementing their problems into an optimization framework for solving them. To solve this problem, a large language model is fine-tuned and embedded into a graphical tool, named moostral, to allow the end user to easily implement their optimization framework into the recommendation system described in this thesis.&#xd;
&#xd;
To connect the previously mentioned elements, a recommendation engine, named recommoonder, is implemented to solve the challenge presented in this thesis.&#xd;
&#xd;
This thesis has a very practical focus, providing open source repositories for all the tools developed in it, allowing their use in the further research lines defined in the last chapter.</mods:abstract>
