Abstract

In this paper partition problems into k independent sets or cliques of bounded size k′ are analyzed for several classes of graphs. We prove the computational complexity of both problems restricted to cographs, split graphs, bipartite graphs and interval graphs given general or constant k and k′. It is shown, that the assignment problem for operations in a branching flow graph to processors, each with a limit on the number of executable operations, equals the first problem restricted to cographs. In addition a job-assignment problem given intervals for each job and k machines, each executing at most k′ jobs, equals the first problem restricted to interval graphs. It is shown, that both problem are NP-complete.
