	abstract = {<div>Our results suggest that a more complex strategy for survival is favored in a competitive environment. The degree of complexity is associated with the estimated embedding dimension for population sets where the birth rate, <em>b</em>, and mutation threshold, <em>th</em>, are independently varied. The embedding dimension for a time series determined by parameters of the Penna model was estimated from a simplex projection method. A deviation was encountered, however, for population sets where the maximum number of offspring in a lifetime, max_off, is varied. It is presumed that this may be due to the coupling of the parameters <em>b</em> and the minimum reproductive age <em>r</em>.</div>},
