Summary: 
System level diagnosis that can identify the faulty units in the system was introduced by Preparata, Metze, and Chien. In this area, the fundamental problem is to decide the diagnosability of given networks. We study the diagnosability of networks represented by the cartesian product. Our result is the optimal one with respect to the restriction of degrees of vertices of graphs that represent the networks.
