This chapter demonstrates how a universal requirement for optimality leads to the complex structural organization of a network. It discusses a long-lasting criticism of the preferential concept and describes existing approaches to the optimization-driven evolution of complex networks. In particular, the optimized trade-off model of a growing network is described, as well as models showing the explosive percolation phenomenon.

Keywords:   optimization algorithms, optimized trade-offs, cost function, optimal choice models, explosive percolation
