Uniqueness of normal forms (UN= ) is an important property of term rewrite systems. UN= is decidable for ground (i.e., variable-free) systems and undecidable in general. Recently ...
Series-parallel orders are de ned as the least class of partial orders containing the one-element order and closed by ordinal sum and disjoint union. From this inductive de nition,...
It is shown that the boundedness problem for a certain class of basic object nets and a corresponding class of multiset rewriting systems is decidable. To achieve this result Dicks...
Abstract. We unify a view on three extensions of Process Rewrite Systems (PRS) and compare their expressive power with that of PRS. We show that the class of Petri nets is less exp...
We consider the transition graphs of regular ground tree (or term) rewriting systems. The vertex set of such a graph is a (possibly infinite) set of trees. Thus, with a finite tree...
