  Ordered Binary Decision Diagrams (OBDDs) are a data structure that is used in
an increasing number of fields of Computer Science (e.g., logic synthesis,
program verification, data mining, bioinformatics, and data protection) for
representing and manipulating discrete structures and Boolean functions. The
purpose of this paper is to study the error resilience of OBDDs and to design a
resilient version of this data structure, i.e., a self-repairing OBDD. In
particular, we describe some strategies that make reduced ordered OBDDs
resilient to errors in the indexes, that are associated to the input variables,
or in the pointers (i.e., OBDD edges) of the nodes. These strategies exploit
the inherent redundancy of the data structure, as well as the redundancy
introduced by its efficient implementations. The solutions we propose allow the
exact restoring of the original OBDD and are suitable to be applied to
classical software packages for the manipulation of OBDDs currently in use.
Another result of the paper is the definition of a new canonical OBDD model,
called {\em Index-resilient Reduced OBDD}, which guarantees that a node with a
faulty index has a reconstruction cost $O(k)$, where $k$ is the number of nodes
with corrupted index.
