Abstract

This paper is concerned with letter-rewriting systems in which context-free rewriting productions are equipped with context conditions. Such a production, π = A → α can be used to rewrite an occurrence of A in a string x only if x satisfies the context conditions attached to π. In particular, we are concerned with situations where the context conditions of several productions are satisfied by a given occurrence of A. Deciding which of these productions can be applied to rewrite this occurrence is done by (once a priori) fixed priorities among all context conditions.
