Abstract

The field of rewriting is broadly concerned with manipulating representations of objects so that we go from a larger representation to a smaller representation. The field of rewriting has contributed some fundamental results within the computer science discipline. This extended abstract explores a few impactful applications of rewriting in the areas of (a) design of algorithms, (b) formal modeling and analysis, and (c) term rewriting and theorem proving.
