Adopting the blackboard architecture from the area of Artificial
Intelligence, a novel kind of optimizer enabling two desirable ideas
is developed. Firstly, using such a well-structured
approach backpropagation of the optimized queries allows an
evolutionary improvement of (crucial) parts of the optimizer. Secondly,
the A^* search strategy can be applied to harmonize two contrary
properties: Alternatives are generated whenever necessary, and
straight-forward optimizing is performed whenever possible, however.
