Cybernetics and Systems Analysis Aims and scope

Abstract

The problem of finding two radioactive balls among a given set of balls is reduced to a combinatorial recognition problem, and the latter is solved by a series of tests. Methods of graph theory are used to solve the problem. The approach is illustrated by an example with 22 balls.
