Abstract :
The authors propose three different constructs which extend the n-version programming (NVP) concept to concurrent NVP (CNVP): process-dissimilar CNVP, subprogram-dissimilar CNVP, and structure-dissimilar CNVP. Each of these three constructs is a corollary to one of the three concurrent recovery block constructs
