TOP(mark(x)) -> CHECK(x)
TOP(found(x)) -> TOP(active(x))
TOP(found(x)) -> ACTIVE(x)
CHECK(f(x)) -> F(check(x))

CHECK(x) -> START(match(f(X), x))
CHECK(x) -> MATCH(f(X), x)
CHECK(x) -> F(X)
MATCH(f(x), f(y)) -> F(match(x, y))
MATCH(f(x), f(y)) -> MATCH(x, y)

On this DP problem, a Narrowing SCC transformation can be performed.
As a result of transforming the rule

TOP(mark(x)) -> TOP(check(x))

two new Dependency Pairs are created:

TOP(mark(f(x''))) -> TOP(f(check(x'')))
TOP(mark(x'')) -> TOP(start(match(f(X), x'')))

The transformation is resulting in one new DP problem:
