Processor fault diagnosis plays an important role in measuring the reliability of multiprocessor systems and the diagnosis of many well-known interconnection networks. The conditional diagnosability, which is more general than the classical diagnosability, is to measure the diagnosability of a multiprocessor system under the assumption that all of the neighbors of any node in the system cannot fail at the same time. This study shows that the conditional diagnosability for k -ary n -cubes under the PMC model is 8 n − 7 for k ≥ 4 and n ≥ 4.
