Abstract

In the paper [5], the authors defined the well-structured symmetric switch block MN,W showed that MN,W is universal for any pair of positive integers N and W. However, we find that this result is partially correct. Here, we show that, when N驴7, MN,W is not universal for odd Ws (驴3) and it is universal for any even W.
