The considered problems correspond to basic flow restoration options associated with reconfiguration capabilities of individual network resources' layers. It is shown in detail how the Benders' Decomposition technique can be applied for solving the problems, yielding an effective means for evaluating the cost of different restoration options in large B-ISDN, ATM, IP, \SDH\ networks. Effectiveness of the proposed approach is illustrated by means of a numerical study.
