Recovery procedures involving time redundancy in the form of instruction retries and
program rollbacks have proved to be very effective against transient failures in computer
systems. A class of such recovery procedures is presented and analyzed here, and the
parameters of each procedure are determined so that the system's operation is optimized.
These procedures are then compared in order to select the most appropriate one for given
system parameters.
