Abstract :
Operation of developmental systems is in many ways similar to that of discrete dynamic networks. Applying such network analysis to developmental system enables investigation of the dynamic properties of development at different levels. In this work the basins of attraction of a developmental system is explored in order to gain information about the details from the interwoven nature of the development of structure and behaviour. The investigation show how such method of analysis can offer insight about the workings of developmental systems.
