Schema

For now see http://dev.aspsimon.org/xtc.xsd

XML Structure

The XML structure has the following main blocks:

  • <trs>: this block contains all the information pertinent to the TRS itself. A more detailed description is below.
  • <strategy>: this corresponds to the (STRATEGY ) block in the TPDB format.
  • <startterm>: this is an extension for complexity analysis
  • <status>: this is a meta-information block which contains information relating to the known termination status of a given problem.
  • <metainformation>: more meta-information pertaining to the author of a problem, can also contain free-form comments.

Both <status> and <metainformation> will be stored in the database, but stripped from input files for the purposes of running the competition.

The <trs> block is structured as follows:

  • <rules>: this block contains all the rules of a TRS, relative rules are separated into a separate child <relrules>; both these blocks can contain multiple <rule> children, consisting of a <lhs>, <rhs> and optional <conditions> block.
  • <signature>: this block contains the list of function symbols with their signatures (name, arity, theory and context-sensitive replacement-map).
  • <comment>: a free-form comment field about this TRS itself.
  • <conditiontype>: for conditional TRS, this block is used to select the type of condition to be applied.

The full structure can be seen in the XML Schema file linked above.
