Service-oriented architecture defines a paradigm for building applications by assembling autonomous components such as web services to create web service compositions. Web services are executed in complex contexts where unforeseen events may compromise the security of the web services composition. If such compositions perform critical functions, prompt action may be required as new security thr...

Compositions measurement is a vitally critical issue for the modelling and control of distillation process. The product compositions of distillation columns are traditionally measured using indirect techniques via inferring tray compositions from its temperature or by using an online analyser. These techniques were reported as inefficient and relatively slow methods. In this paper, an alternati...

The authors presented the contribution of gasoline vehicle exhaust to SOA formation in urban atmosphere. The manuscript indicated the importance of the vehicular gasoline compositions and clarified the principal problem of vehicular emissions for haze pollution in China. However, in your literature review, the authors missed some new findings. E. g. Tang et al. (2015) illustrated the difference...

In this paper we study the class of m-row matrix compositions (m-compositions, for short), i.e., m-row matrices with nonnegative integer entries in which every column has at least one non-zero element. We provide several enumerative results, various combinatorial identities, and some combinatorial interpretations. Most of these properties are an extension to matrix compositions of the combinato...

Let A be any set of positive integers and n ∈ N. A composition of n with parts in A is an ordered collection of one or more elements in A whose sum is n. A palindromic composition of n with parts in A is a composition of n with parts in A in which the summands are the same in the given or in reverse order. A Carlitz (palindromic) composition of n with parts in A is a (palindromic) composition o...
