Termination of non-simple rewrite systems

Abstract

dc:description

Rewriting is a computational process in which one term is derived from another by replacing a subterm with another subterm in accordance with a set of rules. If such a set of rules (rewrite system) has the property that no derivation can continue indefinitely, it is said to be terminating. Showing termination is an important component of theorem proving and of great interest in programming languages.
