Abstract

Tree rewriting systems are sets of tree rewriting rules used to compute by repeatedly replacing equal trees in a given formula until the simplest possible form (normal form) is obtained. The Church-Rosser property is certainly one of the most fundamental properties of tree rewriting system. In this system the simplest form of a given tree is unique since the final result does not depend on the order in which the rewritings rules are applied. The Church-Rosser system can offer both flexible computing and effecting reasoning with equations and have been intensively researched and widely applied to automated theorem proving and program verification etc. [3,5].
