It exploits the commutativity of concurrently executed transitions in interleaved system runs in order to reduce the size of the explored state space. Directed model checking on the other hand addresses the state explosion problem by using guided search techniques during state space exploration. As a consequence, shorter errors trails are found and less search effort is required than when using standard depth-first or breadth-first search. We analyze how to combine directed model checking with partial order reduction methods and give experimental results on how the combination of both techniques performs. date: 2002 date_type: published series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science volume: 2318 publisher: Springer pagerange: 95-138 id_number: 10.1007/3-540-46017-9_10 refereed: TRUE isbn: 3-540-43477-1 book_title: Model Checking Software (SPIN '02) editors_name: Bosnacki, Dragan editors_name: Leue, Stefan official_url: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/3-540-46017-9_10 citation: Lluch-Lafuente, Alberto and Edelkamp, Stefan and Leue, Stefan Partial Order Reduction in Directed Model Checking.
