     ↳Dependency Pair Analysis



R contains the following Dependency Pairs:

MERGE(++(x, y), ++(u, v)) -> MERGE(y, ++(u, v))
MERGE(++(x, y), ++(u, v)) -> MERGE(++(x, y), v)

Furthermore, R contains one SCC.

     ↳DPs
       →DP Problem 1
         ↳Polynomial Ordering


Dependency Pair:

MERGE(++(x, y), ++(u, v)) -> MERGE(y, ++(u, v))


Rules:


merge(x, nil) -> x
merge(nil, y) -> y
merge(++(x, y), ++(u, v)) -> ++(x, merge(y, ++(u, v)))
merge(++(x, y), ++(u, v)) -> ++(u, merge(++(x, y), v))





The following dependency pair can be strictly oriented:

MERGE(++(x, y), ++(u, v)) -> MERGE(y, ++(u, v))


There are no usable rules using the Ce-refinement that need to be oriented.

Used ordering: Polynomial ordering with Polynomial interpretation:
  POL(v)=  0  
  POL(++(x1, x2))=  1 + x2  
  POL(MERGE(x1, x2))=  x1  
  POL(u)=  0  

resulting in one new DP problem.

             ↳Dependency Graph


Dependency Pair:


Rules:


merge(x, nil) -> x
merge(nil, y) -> y
merge(++(x, y), ++(u, v)) -> ++(x, merge(y, ++(u, v)))
merge(++(x, y), ++(u, v)) -> ++(u, merge(++(x, y), v))





Using the Dependency Graph resulted in no new DP problems.
