Given a network and the total flows into and out of each of the sink and source nodes, it is useful to select uniformly at random an origin-destination (O-D) matrix for which the total in and out flows at sinks and sources (column and row sums) matches the given data. We give an algorithm for small networks (less than 16 nodes) for sampling such O-D matrices with exactly the uniform distribution and apply it to traffic network analysis. This algorithm also can be applied to communication networks and used in the statistical analysis of contingency tables.
