Abstract
We study a monitoring problem on the surface of the earth for significant environmental, social/political and extreme events using satellites as sensors. We assume that the surface of the earth is divided into a set of regions, where a region may be a continent, a country, or a set of neighboring countries. We also assume that, the impact of a significant event spills into neighboring regions and there will be corresponding indicators of such events. Careful deployment of sensors, utilizing Identifying Codes, can ensure that even though the number of deployed sensors is fewer than the number of regions, it may be possible to uniquely identify the region where the event has taken place. We assume that an event is confined to a region. As Earth is almost a sphere, we use a soccer ball (a sphere) as a model. From the model, we construct a Soccer Ball Graph (SBG), and show that the SBG has at least 26 sets of Identifying Codes of cardinality ten, implying that there are at least 26 different ways to deploy ten satellites to monitor the Earth. Finally, we also show that the size of the minimum Identifying Code for the SBG is at least nine.

Differential code bias (DCB) is one of the main error sources of the positioning, navigation and timing services and slant total electron content extraction. The DCB can usually be estimated together with ionospheric model coefficients from the data of ...
Revisiting and Improving Upper Bounds for Identifying Codes
An identifying code $C$ of a graph $G$ is a dominating set of $G$ such that any two distinct vertices of $G$ have distinct closed neighborhoods within $C$. These codes have been widely studied for over two decades. We give an improvement over all the best ...
The minimum identifying code graphs
Let G be a graph and B(u) be the set of u with all of its neighbors in G. A set S of vertices is called an identifying code of G if, for every pair of distinct vertices u and v, both B(u)@?S and B(v)@?S are nonempty and distinct. A minimum identifying ...
