The earliest study on
connectivity of Cartesian product graphs can be traced back to
1957 by G. Sabidussi. He proved $\kappa(G_1\times G_2)\geqslant
\kappa(G_1)+\kappa(G_2)$, hence determined the connectivity of
Cartesian product of two maximally connected graphs. This result
was generalized by Xu[1998] and some other authors. Our recent
work determined the exact value of connectivity and
edge-connectivity of Cartesian product of two arbitrary digraphs,
in terms of the parameters of the two factor graphs.
