You should define them as design variables. I recommend that you first read thoroughly the nice documentation and source code of MATLAB's built-in Genetic Algorithm (ga function) as well as those of PSO and SA to learn about the basics of metaheuristics. Then go to the File Exchange, where you can download the source code for many metaheuristic algorithms, written by the original authors. You can learn a lot by reading the original paper of metaheuristic algorithms and the original source codes published on File exchange.
