چکیده

In this paper we discuss term-rewriting systems with ru/e prioriries, which simply is a partial ordering on the rules. The procedural meaning of such an ordering then is, that the application of a rule of lower priority is allowed only if no rule of higher priority is applicable. The semantics of such a system is discussed. It turns out that the class of all hounded systems indeed has such a semantics.

Towards Term Rewriting Systems in Constraint Handling Rules Coming to terms with jungles

Term rewriting systems are a formalism in widespread use, often implemented by means of term graph rewriting. In this work we present preliminary results towards an elegant embedding of term graph rewriting in Constraint Handling Rules with rule priorities (CHR). As term graph rewriting is well-known to be incomplete with respect to term rewriting, we aim for sound jungle evaluation in CHR. Hav...

Operational Semantics of Term Rewriting with Priorities

We study the semantics of term rewriting systems with rule priorities (PRS), as introduced in [1]. Three open problems posed in that paper are solved, by giving counter examples. Moreover, a class of executable PRSs is identified. A translation of PRSs into transition system specifications (TSS) is given. This translation introduces negative premises. We prove that the translation preserves the...

Term Rewriting Systems with Priorities

Term rewriting systems with rules of different priority are introduced. The semantics are exp}ained in detail and several examples are discussed.

Workshop Coordinators:

The notion of “rule” is ubiqitous in computer science, from theoretical formalisms to practical programming languages. Matured rulebased programming experiences a renaissance due to its applications in areas such as business rules, semantic web, computational biology, medical diagnosis, software verification, and security. We will embed rule-based approaches into the Constraint Handling Rules (...
