Boland, Laskar, Turner and Domke introduced in [#!bltd!#] a
generalization of sum graph. A graph is a mod sum graph if there
exist a positive integer and a labelling of the vertices
with distinct elements of
such that
if and only if and . We similarly define the mod sum number of a
graph as the smallest number of isolated vertices that
must be added to such that the resulting graph is a mod sum
graph (MSG). So far the classifications on graphs are
