Abstract
We investigate the dominating-c-color number,, of a graph G. That is the maximum number of color classes that are also dominating when G is colored using colors. We show that where is the join of G and . This result allows us to construct classes of graphs such that and thus provide some information regarding two questions raised in [1] and [2].
