A system is presented utilizing a simple genetic algorithm combined with a developmental model for the evolutionary design of generic structures of combinational multipliers. An artificial environment is introduced into the system interpreted as an external control of the developmental process allowing to design irregular structures (inspired by the irregularity observed in conventional multipliers). Two sorts of experiments were conducted in order to demonstrate the ability of the system to adapt to different environments. The approach presented in this paper poses the first case in the field of the evolutionary design when generic multipliers have been evolved by means of the development.
