| Abstract: | This paper presents a control structure designed for an exception handling mechanism based on Goodenough's proposal. The aim is to provide a recovery mechanism as a basic component of any procedure-oriented language, which can handle any kind of error, ranging from design errors to occasional malfunctioning of hardware components.The semantics of the structure is described formally by means of Hoare type verification rules. |
