WORST_CASE(?,O(1)) * Step 1: DependencyPairs WORST_CASE(?,O(1)) + Considered Problem: - Strict TRS: a(b(x)) -> a(c(b(x))) - Signature: {a/1} / {b/1,c/1} - Obligation: innermost runtime complexity wrt. defined symbols {a} and constructors {b,c} + Applied Processor: DependencyPairs {dpKind_ = DT} + Details: We add the following dependency tuples: Strict DPs a#(b(x)) -> c_1(a#(c(b(x)))) Weak DPs and mark the set of starting terms. * Step 2: PredecessorEstimation WORST_CASE(?,O(1)) + Considered Problem: - Strict DPs: a#(b(x)) -> c_1(a#(c(b(x)))) - Weak TRS: a(b(x)) -> a(c(b(x))) - Signature: {a/1,a#/1} / {b/1,c/1,c_1/1} - Obligation: innermost runtime complexity wrt. defined symbols {a#} and constructors {b,c} + Applied Processor: PredecessorEstimation {onSelection = all simple predecessor estimation selector} + Details: We estimate the number of application of {1} by application of Pre({1}) = {}. Here rules are labelled as follows: 1: a#(b(x)) -> c_1(a#(c(b(x)))) * Step 3: RemoveWeakSuffixes WORST_CASE(?,O(1)) + Considered Problem: - Weak DPs: a#(b(x)) -> c_1(a#(c(b(x)))) - Weak TRS: a(b(x)) -> a(c(b(x))) - Signature: {a/1,a#/1} / {b/1,c/1,c_1/1} - Obligation: innermost runtime complexity wrt. defined symbols {a#} and constructors {b,c} + Applied Processor: RemoveWeakSuffixes + Details: Consider the dependency graph 1:W:a#(b(x)) -> c_1(a#(c(b(x)))) The following weak DPs constitute a sub-graph of the DG that is closed under successors. The DPs are removed. 1: a#(b(x)) -> c_1(a#(c(b(x)))) * Step 4: EmptyProcessor WORST_CASE(?,O(1)) + Considered Problem: - Weak TRS: a(b(x)) -> a(c(b(x))) - Signature: {a/1,a#/1} / {b/1,c/1,c_1/1} - Obligation: innermost runtime complexity wrt. defined symbols {a#} and constructors {b,c} + Applied Processor: EmptyProcessor + Details: The problem is already closed. The intended complexity is O(1). WORST_CASE(?,O(1))
