Linear layout of graphs/digraphs is one of the classical and important optimization problems that have many practical applications. Recently Tamaki proposed an
O
(
mn
k
+ 1
)-time and
O
(
n
k
)-space algorithm for testing whether the pathwidth (or vertex separation) of a given digraph with
n
vertices and
m
edges is at most
k
. In this paper, we show that linear layout of digraphs with an objective function such as cutwidth, minimum linear arrangement, vertex separation (or pathwidth) and sum cut can be formulated as a linear layout problem on a submodular system (
V
,
f
) and then propose a simple framework of search tree algorithms for finding a linear layout (a sequence of
V
) with a bounded width that minimizes a given cost function. According to our framework, we obtain an
O
(
k
m
n
2
k
)-time and
O
(
n
+
m
)-space algorithm for testing whether the pathwidth of a given digraph is at most
k
.
