Well - I'm working on something that  performs online recovery as a
subsytem of my project. There has been many past work which does this
or uses such approach.

Some famous examples are :-
1.www.cs.washington.edu/homes/levy/shadowdrivers.pdf
2. www.cs.virginia.edu/~nrp3d/wips/usenix04-abstract.pdf

Regards,
Asim
