Formal verification is becoming a fundamental step of safety-critical and model-based software development. As part of the verification process, model checking is one of the current advanced techniques to analyze the behavior of a system. In this paper, we examine an existing parallel model checking algorithm and we propose improvements to eliminate some computational bottlenecks. Our measurements show that the resulting new algorithm has better scalability and performance than both the former parallel approach and the sequential algorithm.
