Pi-finite rewrite system:
The TRS R consists of the following rules:

som3_in_gaa([], Bs, Bs) → som3_out_gaa([], Bs, Bs)
som3_in_gaa(As, [], As) → som3_out_gaa(As, [], As)
som3_in_gaa(.(A, As), .(B, Bs), .(+(A, B), Cs)) → U1_gaa(A, As, B, Bs, Cs, som3_in_gaa(As, Bs, Cs))
U1_gaa(A, As, B, Bs, Cs, som3_out_gaa(As, Bs, Cs)) → som3_out_gaa(.(A, As), .(B, Bs), .(+(A, B), Cs))

som3_in_gaa(x1, x2, x3)  =  som3_in_gaa(x1)
[]  =  []
som3_out_gaa(x1, x2, x3)  =  som3_out_gaa
