Representations of ordered semigroups and the Physical concept of Entropy

The abstract concept of entropy is interpreted through the concept of numerical representation of a totally preordered set so that the concept of composition of systems or additivity of entropy can be analyzed through the study of additive representations of totally ordered semigroups.
