The divide-and-conquer principle is a majoi paradigm of algorithms design. Corresponding cost functions satisfy recurrences that directly reflect the decomposition mechanism used i...
ACL2 is the latest inception of the Boyer-Moore theorem prover, the 2005 recipient of the ACM Software System Award. In the hands of an expert, it feels like a finely tuned race ...

We describe a new automatic static analysis for determining upper-bound functions on the use of quantitative resources for strict, higher-order, polymorphic, recursive programs de...

We give a novel transformation for proving termination of higher-order rewrite systems in the format of Inductive Data Type Systems (IDTSs) by Blanqui, Jouannaud and Okada. The tr...
Abstract. This survey of the theory and applications of rewriting with equations discusses the existence and uniqueness of normal forms, the Knuth-Bendix completion procedure and i...
