Abstract
Fault diagnosis of multiprocessor systems motivates the following graph-the oretic definition. A subset C of points in an undirected graph G = (V, E) i s called an identifying code if the sets B(upsilon) boolean AND C consistin g of all elements of C within distance one from the vertex upsilon are diff erent. We also require that the sets B(upsilon) boolean AND C are all nonem pty. We take G to be the infinite square lattice with diagonals and show th at the density of the smallest identifying code is at least 2/9 and at most 4/17.
