Term Rewriting Systems
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.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 16th International Conference on Rewriting Techniques and Applications, RTA 2005, held in Nara, Japan in April 2005. The 29 revised full papers and 2 systems description papers presented together with 5 invited articles were carefully reviewed and selected from 79 submissions. All current issues in Rewriting are addressed, ranging from foundational and methodological issues to applications in various contexts; due to the fact that the first RTA conference was held 20 years ago, the conference offered 3 invited historical papers 2 of which are included in this proceedings.
