Abstract
This paper investigates the role of genotypic search space dimensionality on the behaviour and characteristics of a computational model of embryogeny. By varying genome length, it is shown that genotype dimensionality can have an impact on the performance of an evolutionary process and the origins of this are discussed. Observed characteristics of robustness, scalability and modularity are shown to be retained.
