    The specification of abstract data types requires the possibility to treat exceptions and errors. We present an approach allowing all forms of error handling: error introduction, error propagation and error recovery. The algebraic semantics of our method and a new correctness criterion are given. We also introduce an operational semantics of a subclass of our specifications which coincides with the algebraic semantics.
