     ↳Dependency Pair Analysis

R contains the following Dependency Pairs:

EVEN(s(s(x))) -> EVEN(x)
HALF(s(s(x))) -> HALF(x)
PLUS(s(x), y) -> PLUS(x, y)
TIMES(s(x), y) -> IF_TIMES(even(s(x)), s(x), y)
TIMES(s(x), y) -> EVEN(s(x))
IF_TIMES(true, s(x), y) -> PLUS(times(half(s(x)), y), times(half(s(x)), y))
IF_TIMES(true, s(x), y) -> TIMES(half(s(x)), y)
IF_TIMES(true, s(x), y) -> HALF(s(x))
IF_TIMES(false, s(x), y) -> PLUS(y, times(x, y))
IF_TIMES(false, s(x), y) -> TIMES(x, y)

Furthermore, R contains four SCCs.
