Abstract

Recovery from human operator error is key to system dependability: users are usually the main source for incorrect data, and this data can render a system unusable. Although current management information systems allow for the reversal of some processes, they donýt offer an undo function to correct the errors human operators might introduce while editing data. The authors propose a method for correcting this potential problem with a new undo function that allows the recovery of previous states even after records have changed.
