The total vertex irregularity strength of , denoted by tvs() is the minimum value of the largest label over all such irregular assignment. In this paper, we consider the total vertex irregularity strengths of disjoint union of isomorphic sun graphs, tvs(), disjoint union of consecutive nonisomorphic sun graphs, £¿tvs(=1 %U http://www.hindawi.com/journals/ijct/2012/284383/
