Abstract

Sophisticated reductions are an important means to achieve progress  
in automated theorem proving. We consider the powerful reduction rule Contextual  
Rewriting in the context of the superposition calculus. If the rule is  
considered in its abstract, most general form, the applicability of contextual rewriting is not  
decidable.
We develop a decidable instance of the general contextual rewriting  
rule and implement it in SPASS. An experimental evaluation on the TPTP gives  
first insights into the application potential of the rule instance.
