A Dependency Pair Framework for Innermost Complexity Analysis of Term Rewrite Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a modular framework to analyze the innermost runtime complexity of term rewrite systems automatically. Our method is based on the dependency pair framework for termination analysis. In contrast to previous work, we developed a direct adaptation of successful termination techniques from the dependency pair framework in order to use them for complexity analysis. By extensive experimental results, we demonstrate the power of our method compared to existing techniques.

Modular Termination Proofs for Rewriting Using Dependency Pairs
Recently, Arts and Giesl developed the dependency pair approach which allows automated termination and innermost termination proofs for many term rewriting systems (TRSs) for which such proofs were not possible before. The motivation for this approach was that virtually all previous techniques for automated termination proofs of TRSs were based on simplification orderings. In practice, however,...
متن کاملImproving Dependency Pairs
The dependency pair approach [2, 12, 13] is one of the most powerful techniques for termination and innermost termination proofs of term rewrite systems (TRSs). For any TRS, it generates inequality constraints that have to be satisfied by weakly monotonic well-founded orders. We improve the dependency pair approach by considerably reducing the number of constraints produced for (innermost) term...
متن کاملDecision Procedures for Loop Detection
The dependency pair technique is a powerful modular method for automated termination proofs of term rewrite systems. We first show that dependency pairs are also suitable for disproving termination: loops can be detected more easily. In a second step we analyze how to disprove innermost termination. Here, we present a novel procedure to decide whether a given loop is an innermost loop. All resu...

متن کاملA Combination Framework for Complexity
In this paper we present a combination framework for polynomial complexity analysis of term rewrite systems. The framework covers both derivational and runtime complexity analysis. We present generalisations of powerful complexity techniques, notably a generalisation of complexity pairs and (weak) dependency pairs. Finally, we also present a novel technique, called dependency graph decompositio...
