The system is accessible function passing by a sort ordering that equates all sorts. We start by computing the following initial DP problem: P1. (1) eval_0#(x, y, z) => eval_1#(x, y, z) | y > 0 (2) eval_1#(x, y, z) => eval_1#(x + y, y, z) | y > x /\ z > y /\ y > 0 (3) eval_1#(x, y, z) => eval_1#(x, y, x - y) | y > x /\ z > y /\ y > 0 ***** We apply the Graph Processor on P1. There is only one SCC, so all DPs not inside the SCC can be removed: P2. (1) eval_1#(x, y, z) => eval_1#(x + y, y, z) | y > x /\ z > y /\ y > 0 ***** We apply the Integer Function Processor on P2. We use the following integer mapping: J(eval_1#) = arg_2 - arg_1 - 1 We thus have: (1) y > x /\ z > y /\ y > 0 |= y - x - 1 > y - (x + y) - 1 (and y - x - 1 >= 0) All DPs are strictly oriented, and may be removed. Hence, this DP problem is finite.
