Runtime Complexity TRS:
The TRS R consists of the following rules:

active(f(a, X, X)) → mark(f(X, b, b))
active(b) → mark(a)
mark(f(X1, X2, X3)) → active(f(X1, mark(X2), X3))
mark(a) → active(a)
mark(b) → active(b)
f(mark(X1), X2, X3) → f(X1, X2, X3)
f(X1, mark(X2), X3) → f(X1, X2, X3)
f(X1, X2, mark(X3)) → f(X1, X2, X3)
f(active(X1), X2, X3) → f(X1, X2, X3)
f(X1, active(X2), X3) → f(X1, X2, X3)
f(X1, X2, active(X3)) → f(X1, X2, X3)
