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) +#(x, s(y)) => +#(x, y) ***** We apply the Subterm Criterion Processor on P1. We use the following projection function: nu(+#) = 2 We thus have: (1) s(y) |>| y All DPs are strictly oriented, and may be removed. Hence, this DP problem is finite.
