N2 - We describe an abstract proof-theoretic framework based on normal-form proofs, defined using well-founded orderings on proof objects. This leads to robust notions of canonical presentation and redundancy. Fairness of deductive mechanisms - in this general framework - leads to completeness or saturation. The method has so far been applied to the equational, Horn-clause, and deduction-modulo cases.
