    The class of homogeneously presented monoids is investigated. In the first part the word and division problems are solved, and a normal form for monoids in this class is given. In the second part the results obtained are applied to the motivating examples of this class -- positive singular Artin monoids. Finally, the singular Artin monoids are introduced and the word and division problems are solved for such monoids of finite type, including, for example, the singular braid monoids.
