....defective code that the testing procedure has missed. Unfortunately, most of the published literature on field failures concentrates on reliability metrics and trends (for example, Levendel89] rather than error characteristics. A number of studies on field failure done at Stanford [Mourad87] Iyer86] and CMU [Castillo81] used data from error logs to track system failures. Error log records are generated by the system after programs fail with an abnormal end (ABEND) completion code. Although error logs accurately count failure frequency, they give little semantic information about the error ....
