Abstract :
The authors argue that the network decomposition suggested by Jasmon (1985) fails to give all basic minimal paths of the network, depending on the number of nodes split. Consequently, some minimal node cut sets are not generated. Even those generated using these basic minimal paths need not be minimal node cut sets.<>
