• Resumen

  • This paper examines how software based fault tolerant computing approach through triplicate redundancy and recovery. This approach is not intended to tolerate the software design bugs. It is intended to tolerate various environmental faults during the execution time of a computer- controlled system. Application data corruption due to electrical transients is detected and recovered to control the system immediately. The proposed approach is a low cost tool towards designing a robust industrial application system that can tolerate errors due to electrical surges and transients. This approach does not rely on design diversification.
