Abstract
An apparatus and method for automatically detecting and recovering from a fault in a microprocessor-based system. The apparatus and method utilizes a leaky bucket routine and an event handler procedure. The method may further use Object Oriented techniques that abstracts differences between hardware and software faults to allow for the development of a common framework.
