We proposed a New Movement Strategy of Cuckoo Search algorithm (NMS-CS). The novelty is in a random walk with step lengths calculated by Lévy distribution. The step lengths in the original Cuckoo search (CS) are significant terms in simulating the Cuckoo bird's movement and are registered as a scalar vector. 

The Matlab source codes of NMS-CS optimized algorithm is included
