In particular, inference-based diagnosis is a decentralized architecture of interest, since it is more general than several other decentralized architectures. In this paper, we first propose a method that realizes a diagnosis objective D by an arborescent architecture (or tree). Each leaf of the tree is a decentralized diagnosis, and each node n is a disjunction or con- junction of the diagnosis decisions of the two children of n. Then, we show that if inference-based diagnosis is applicable to D, then all the leafs of the obtained tree are basic decentralized diagnosers. This implies that every inference-based diagnosis is realizable by a combination of basic decentralized diagnosers.Keyphrases: arborescent diagnosis, decentralized diagnosis, discrete event systems, inference based diagnosis In: Marina Zanella, Ingo Pill and Alessandro Cimatti (editors). 28th International Workshop on Principles of Diagnosis (DX'17), vol 4, pages 144-158.
