We provide a global technique, called neatening, for the study of modularity of left-linear Term Rewriting Systems. Objects called bubbles are identi ed as the responsibles of mos...
Many functional programs and higher order term rewrite systems contain, besides higher order rules, also a significant first order part. We discuss how an automatic termination p...
Abstract. Functional logic languages with a complete operational semantics are based on narrowing, a generalization of term rewriting where unification replaces matching. In this ...
Abstract. The automated analysis of termination of term rewriting systems (TRSs) has drawn a lot of attention in the scientific community during the last decades and many differe...
Introducing priorities on rules in rewriting increases their expressive power and helps to limit computations. Priority rewriting is used in rule-based programming as well as in f...
