Fast transparent migration for virtual machines

by Michael Nelson, Beng-hong Lim, Greg Hutchins - In Proceedings of the annual conference on USENIX Annual Technical Conference , 2005
"... This paper describes the design and implementation of a system that uses virtual machine technology [1] to provide fast, transparent application migration. This is the first system that can migrate unmodified applications on unmodified mainstream Intel x86-based operating system, including Microsoft ..."

An Implementation of Transparent Migration on Standard Scheme

by Eijiro Sumii - Department of Computer Science, Rice University , 2000
"... I present a handy (though somewhat restrictive) way to implement mobile computation a la Telescript on top of standard Scheme. Background. Mobile computation is an ecient and eective approach to distributed programming where a program works by migrating from one host to another. The migration is ca ..."

is called transparent if the execution state of the program is preserved before and after the migration. Transparent migration is preferable to non-transparent, because it is easier to use for application programmers. At the same time, however, it is harder to implement for language developers: all existing

Transparent Migration Of Mobile Agents

by Luc Moreau, Victor Tan, Nick Gibbins , 2001
"... sofar, the SOuthampton Framework for Agent Research, is used to build a pervasive information system, which provides context-adapted information to mobile users. Mobile agents are used as intermediaries between mobile users and the xed infrastructure, migrating to locations with resources adapted ..."

MIST: PVM with Transparent Migration and Checkpointing

by Jeremy Casas, Dan Clark, Phil Galbiati, Ravi Konuru, Steve Otto, Robert Prouty, Jonathan Walpole - In 3rd Annual PVM Users' Group Meeting , 1995
"... We are currently involved in research to enable PVM to take advantage of shared networks of workstations (NOWs) more effectively. In such a computing environment, it is important to utilize workstations unobtrusively and recover from machine failures. Towards this goal, we have enhanced PVM with tra ..."

with transparent task migration, checkpointing, and global scheduling. These enhancements are part of the MIST project which takes an open systems approach in developing a cohesive, distributed parallel computing environment. This open systems approach promotes plug-and-play integration of independently developed

Transparent Migration of Distributed Communicating Processes

by Ravikanth Nasika, Partha Dasgupta , 2000
"... A Computing Community is a group of cooperating machines that behave like a single system and runs all general-purpose applications---without any modifications to the shrink-wrapped binary applications or the operating system. In order to realize such a system, we inject a wrapper DLL into an a ..."

We have implemented the software that needs to be injected into the application to enable this feature. Handling more application types is part

Transparent Migration of Java-based Mobile Agents

by Capturing And, Stefan Funfrocken - In Mobile Agents , 1998
"... . In this paper we describe a way to save and restore the state of a running Java program. We achieve this on the language level, without modifying the Java virtual machine, by instrumenting the programmer 's original code with a preprocessor. The automatically inserted code saves the runtime i ..."

information when the program requests state saving and reestablishes the program's runtime state on restart. The current preprocessor prototype is used in a mobile agent scenario to offer transparent agent migration for Java based mobile agents, but could generally be used to save and reestablish

Transparent Migration and Rollback for Unmodified Applications in Workstation Clusters

by Stefan Petri, Matthias Bolz, Horst Langendörfer - IN WORKSTATION CLUSTERS. INFORMATIK-BERICHT 98-02 , 1998
"... Programmers and users of compute intensive scientific applications often do not want to (or even cannot) code load balancing and fault tolerance into their programs. The P / BEAM system [PL95, PSLS96] uses a global virtual name space to provide migration and rollback transparency in user space for d ..."
