     ↳Dependency Pair Analysis



R contains the following Dependency Pairs:

QSORT(.(x, y)) -> QSORT(lowers(x, y))
QSORT(.(x, y)) -> LOWERS(x, y)
QSORT(.(x, y)) -> QSORT(greaters(x, y))
QSORT(.(x, y)) -> GREATERS(x, y)
LOWERS(x, .(y, z)) -> LOWERS(x, z)
GREATERS(x, .(y, z)) -> GREATERS(x, z)

Furthermore, R contains three SCCs.

Dependency Pair:

LOWERS(x, .(y, z)) -> LOWERS(x, z)


Rules:


qsort(nil) -> nil
qsort(.(x, y)) -> ++(qsort(lowers(x, y)), .(x, qsort(greaters(x, y))))

greaters(x, nil) -> nil
greaters(x, .(y, z)) -> if(<=(y, x), greaters(x, z), .(y, greaters(x, z)))


Strategy:

innermost




The following dependency pair can be strictly oriented:

LOWERS(x, .(y, z)) -> LOWERS(x, z)


There are no usable rules for innermost that need to be oriented.
Used ordering: Lexicographic Path Order with Non-Strict Precedence with Quasi Precedence:
trivial

resulting in one new DP problem.
Used Argument Filtering System:
LOWERS(x1, x2) -> LOWERS(x1, x2)
.(x1, x2) -> .(x1, x2)

Strategy:

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

QSORT(.(x, y)) -> QSORT(lowers(x, y))
no new Dependency Pairs are created.
The transformation is resulting in one new DP problem:

Strategy:

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

QSORT(.(x, y)) -> QSORT(greaters(x, y))
two new Dependency Pairs are created:

QSORT(.(x'', nil)) -> QSORT(nil)
QSORT(.(x'', .(y'', z'))) -> QSORT(if(<=(y'', x''), greaters(x'', z'), .(y'', greaters(x'', z'))))

The transformation is resulting in no new DP problems.
