Recovery Blocks

Recovery Blocks is a software fault tolerance method that organizes error detection and recovery through a primary component and alternative blocks, where the system attempts successive blocks until one passes an acceptance test, thereby distinguishing it from other fault tolerance techniques by its reliance on design-by-contract and outcome-based validation.
