Edge decompositions of multigraphs into multi-2-paths

We establish the computational time complexity of the existence problem of a decomposition of an instance multigraph into isomorphic 3-vertex paths with multiple edges. If the two edge multiplicities are distinct, the problem is NPC; if mutually equal then polynomial.
