Synopsis

Term rewriting systems developed out of mathematical logic and are an important part of theoretical computer science. They consist of sequences of discrete transformation steps where one term is replaced with another and have applications in many areas, from functional programming to automatic theorem proving and computer algebra. This 2003 book starts at an elementary level with the earlier chapters providing a foundation for the rest of the work. Much of the advanced material appeared here for the first time in book form. Subjects treated include orthogonality, termination, completion, lambda calculus, higher-order rewriting, infinitary rewriting and term graph rewriting. Many exercises are included with selected solutions provided on the web. A comprehensive bibliography makes this book ideal both for teaching and research. A chapter is included presenting applications of term rewriting systems, with many pointers to actual implementations.

Revue de presse

'The book presents the state of the art of rewriting techniques, it gives (or scratches) proofs on a very precise level and gives hints to historical sources of the results and to further readings, so it is highly recommended to researchers working in this area.' Zentralblatt für Mathematik

'... has extensive material ... suffice it to say that this book is indispensable for a any serious student of rewriting.' Journal of TLP

'... it will soon be a compulsory reference for anyone working in the area.' Journal of Functional Programming
