Abstract
A version of generalised term graph rewriting is presented in which redirections are interpreted transitively. It is shown that the new semantics enjoy enhanced properties regarding ease of implementation on distributed machines compared with conventional semantics because of the Church-Rosser properties of transitive redirections. Furthermore, the good properties of orthogonal systems are largely retained.
