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) sum#(x) => sum#(x + 1) | x < 0 ***** We apply the Integer Function Processor on P1. We use the following integer mapping: J(sum#) = 0 - arg_1 - 1 We thus have: (1) x < 0 |= 0 - x - 1 > 0 - (x + 1) - 1 (and 0 - x - 1 >= 0) All DPs are strictly oriented, and may be removed. Hence, this DP problem is finite.
