FORD and FULKERSON have shown that a stationary maximal dynamic flow can be obtained by solving a transhipment problem associated with the static network and thereby finding the maximal temporally repeated dynamic flow. This flow is known to be an optimal dynamic flow. this paper presents the remark that temporally repeated flows may be not optimal for a minimal dynamic flow and an algorithm for such a flow. a numerical example is presented.
