(6) QDPSizeChangeProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

We used the following order and afs together with the size-change analysis [AAECC05] to show that there are no infinite chains for this DP problem.

Order:Homeomorphic Embedding Order

AFS:
lt  =  lt
s  =  s
app(x1, x2)  =  app(x2)

From the DPs we obtained the following set of size-change graphs:

• APP(app(lt, app(s, x)), app(s, y)) → APP(app(lt, x), y) (allowed arguments on rhs = {1, 2})
  The graph contains the following edges 1 > 1, 2 > 2

We oriented the following set of usable rules [AAECC05,FROCOS05]. none
