abstract = "The act of going from genotype to phenotype in Grammatical Evolution requires the application of a mapping process. This mapping process works in conjunction with a grammar, to transform an ordinary string of integers into a possible solution to a problem. In this chapter, the reader is exposed to the rich vein of research exploring mappings in Grammatical Evolution. A comprehensive survey of the field of Mapping in GE is presented before the chapter focuses on the main theme, Position Independent Mappings. Firstly pi_GE is presented outlining some of the benefits of the approach, before the reader is presented with a position independent mapping that uses advances in mappings and grammars to present a very powerful variant of GE, TAGE. The chapter concludes by briefly exploring a highly complex developmental variant of the TAGE mapping.",
