Mutation: Is the action involved in mutation? How is it done if it is?

Crossover: After crossover, there is the possibility that one or both of the offsprings' condition is not valid. I mean, l > u. For example, if I have 1122 and 1111, and the crossover point is position 3. Then after crossover, I get 1121 and 1112. So the first one is not valid but the second is. so my question is what to do if this situation happens.

Please explain the notation "(0,m_0]" for the range from which random numbers are selected by "rand". ....
The threshold for GA subsumption is 50 and for action set subsumption is 1000, right? If so, the method COULD SUBSUME (in the Algorithmic Description paper, Springer-Verlag version) will be different for them, but the epsilon_0 is 1 for both of them. Why 1000 is used? (J. Zhang, 11/15/00). ....
I am attempting to reproduce your results with XCSI applied to the Wisconsin Breast Cancer Database. I have had some success to date but to progress further I could do with some assistance. Do you have any statistics on the variability of results obtained from any additional data produced from your experiments in order to evaluate my program's performance? ....
Covering: How are the missing attributes ("?") in the WBC dataset covered--to select a random number or to use l=1 and u=10? (J. Zhang, 11/15/00). ....
