Abstract :
The benefits of neutrality may be said to be a disputed topic within evolutionary computation. To gain a better understanding of neutrality with respect to indirect genotype-phenotype mappings, this work analyses the accessibility of neighbouring neutral networks. Accessibility is a mathematical concept introduced in theoretical biology. The concept is applied on a sufficiently simple indirect genotype-phenotype mapping, termed 2PD0L-mapping
