Research on data diversity is discussed. Data diversity relies on a different form of redundancy from existing approaches to software fault tolerance and is substantially less expensive to implement. Data diversity can also be applied to software testing and greatly facilitates the automation of testing. Up to now it has been explored both theoretically and in a pilot study, and has been shown to be a promising technique. The effectiveness of data diversity as an error detection mechanism and the application of data diversity to differential equation solvers are discussed. Knight, John C. Unspecified Center...
