Abstract

In recent works on program analysis, transformations of various programming languages to term rewriting are used. In this setting, constraints appear naturally. Several definitions which combine rewriting with logical constraints, or with separate rules for integer functions, have been proposed. This paper seeks to unify and generalise these proposals.

The research in this paper is supported by the Austrian Science Fund (FWF) international project I963 and the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science.
