Abstract

Maximal completion (Klein and Hirokawa 2011) is an elegantly simple yet powerful variant of Knuth-Bendix completion. This paper extends the approach to ordered completion and theorem proving as well as normalized completion. An implementation of the different procedures is described, and its practicality is demonstrated by various examples.
