Summary: | Assume that a graph $G$ models a detection system for a facility with a
possible "intruder," or a multiprocessor network with a possible malfunctioning
processor. We consider the problem of placing (the minimum number of) detectors
at a subset of vertices in $G$ to automatically determine if there is an
intruder, and if so, its precise location. In this research we explore a
fault-tolerant variant of identifying codes, known as error-correcting
identifying codes, which permit one false positive or negative and are
applicable to real-world systems. We present the proof of NP-completeness of
the problem of determining said minimum size in arbitrary graphs, and determine
bounds on the parameter in cubic graphs. |
