摘要：The paper presents a genetic algorithm to compute the reliability of a stochastic- flow network in which each arc or node has several capacitis and may fail. I.e. Calculate the system reliability such that the maximum flow is not less than a given demand. The algorithm is based on generating all lower boundary points for the given demand and than the system reliability can be calculated in terms of such points. The proposed algorithm can be used for a network with large number of nodes and links. Also, the paper investigates the problems that are found in the solutions that obtained by using other previous methods.
