- Additional information
- "This paper uses automated checking to identify a gap in the long-standing standard proof of ""partial order reduction"", a ubiquitous algorithm implemented in model-checking software used across academia and industry.
Siegel subsequently showed how the algorithm is flawed. As a practical consequence, this affects the implementation in the widely used SPIN model checker [Siegel. What’s Wrong with On-the-Fly Partial Order Reduction. CAV''2019].
