Node Failure Localization

Tight bounds for maximal identifiability of failure nodes in boolean network tomography

We study maximal identifiability, a measure recently introduced in Boolean Network Tomography to characterize networks' capability to localize failure nodes in end-to-end path measurements. Under standard assumptions on topologies and on monitors placement, we prove tight upper and lower bounds on the maximal identifiability of failure nodes for specific classes of network topologies, such as trees, bounded-degree graphs, d-dimensional grids, in both directed and undirected cases.
