Abstract The addition of redundancy to data structures can be used to improve the ability of a software system to detect and correct errors, and to continue to operate according to its specifications. A case study is presented which indicates how such redundancy can be deployed and exploited at reasonable cost to improve software fault tolerance. Experimental results are reported for the small data base system considered.
