     ↳Dependency Pair Analysis

R contains the following Dependency Pairs:

ACTIVE(f(a, b, X)) -> F(X, X, X)
ACTIVE(f(X1, X2, X3)) -> F(active(X1), X2, X3)
ACTIVE(f(X1, X2, X3)) -> ACTIVE(X1)
ACTIVE(f(X1, X2, X3)) -> F(X1, X2, active(X3))
ACTIVE(f(X1, X2, X3)) -> ACTIVE(X3)
F(mark(X1), X2, X3) -> F(X1, X2, X3)
F(X1, X2, mark(X3)) -> F(X1, X2, X3)
F(ok(X1), ok(X2), ok(X3)) -> F(X1, X2, X3)
PROPER(f(X1, X2, X3)) -> F(proper(X1), proper(X2), proper(X3))
PROPER(f(X1, X2, X3)) -> PROPER(X1)
PROPER(f(X1, X2, X3)) -> PROPER(X2)
PROPER(f(X1, X2, X3)) -> PROPER(X3)
TOP(mark(X)) -> TOP(proper(X))
TOP(mark(X)) -> PROPER(X)
TOP(ok(X)) -> TOP(active(X))
TOP(ok(X)) -> ACTIVE(X)

Furthermore, R contains four SCCs.

Strategy:

innermost

The following dependency pair can be strictly oriented:

F(X1, X2, mark(X3)) -> F(X1, X2, X3)

There are no usable rules for innermost that need to be oriented.

Used ordering: Polynomial ordering with Polynomial interpretation:

POL(mark(x₁)) = 1 + x₁

POL(ok(x₁)) = x₁

POL(F(x₁, x₂, x₃)) = x₃

resulting in one new DP problem.
