....rewriting, and formula transformations as simplification rules, along with two loop rules to handle loops. It turns out that rewriting by a rewrite system of this kind always terminates at a unique formula, independent of any order of rewriting. In the literature of rewrite systems (see, e.g. [5, 13]) this latter property is called the confluence property, and confluent and terminating systems are called canonical systems. A canonical system guarantees the termination at a unique expression independent of the order of rewriting. It is interesting to remark here that we could implement a form ....
