Runtime Complexity TRS:
The TRS R consists of the following rules:

f(a) → g(h(a))
h(g(x)) → g(h(f(x)))
k(x, h(x), a) → h(x)
k(f(x), y, x) → f(x)

(9) CdtRuleRemovalProof (UPPER BOUND (ADD(O(n^1))) transformation)

Found a reduction pair which oriented the following tuples strictly. Hence they can be removed from S.

H(g(z0)) → c1(H(f(z0)))
We considered the (Usable) Rules:

f(a) → g(h(a))
And the Tuples:

H(g(z0)) → c1(H(f(z0)))
The order we found is given by the following interpretation:
Polynomial interpretation :

POL(H(x1)) = [4]x1   
POL(a) = [4]   
POL(c1(x1)) = x1   
POL(f(x1)) = x1   
POL(g(x1)) = [2] + x1   
POL(h(x1)) = 0
