This paper addresses a stochastic-#ow network in which each arc or node has several capacities and may
fail. Given the demand d, we try to evaluate the system reliability that the maximum #ow of the network is
not less than d. A simple algorithm is proposed "rstly to generate all lower boundary points for d, and then
the system reliability can be calculated in terms of such points. One computer example is shown to illustrate
the solution procedure.

A stochastic-flow network consists of a set of nodes, including source nodes which supply various resources and sink nodes at which
resource demands take place, and a collection of arcs whose capacities have multiple operational states.
