In Opns. Res. 14, 377-387 1966 a max-flow min-cut theorem for two-commodity flows in Euler networks with integer capacities is proved. In this paper we describe an algorithm for constructing maximal two-commodity integer flows based on the proof in the reference cited, and we give computation times for some examples on a Burroughs B-5000 computer.
