Motivated by deep neural network applications, we study the problem of scheduling splittable jobs (e.g., neural network inference tasks) on configurable machines (e.g., multi-instance GPUs). We are given $n$ jobs and a set $C$ of…

A vertex subset $I$ of a graph $G$ is called a $k$-path vertex cover if every path on $k$ vertices in $G$ contains at least one vertex from $I$. The \textsc{$k$-Path Vertex Cover Reconfiguration ($k$-PVCR)} problem asks if one can transform…
