....for the degree (2) stackless task migration; full meta data information for the programmer defined task properties object must be loaded whereas only pointer tables are required for degree (1) 5. Related Work There are three main approaches to task migration across heterogeneous platforms [32]. The first approach assumes that all tasks will execute on a virtual machine that is available on all nodes in the system, for example the Java Virtual Machine. The second and third approaches both assume that tasks will execute on their node s native machine. To do this they need to generate ....

....as it does not need to generate all of its meta information at runtime and the migration mechanism is more transparent to the programmer. Examples of the second approach include: HMF [21] Process Inspection [14] HiCaM [25] Ythreads [30] Arachne [8] DOME [31] Shao and Schnabel s work [32] and MpPVM [6] Examples of the third approach include: Emerald [35] Tuis [34] Shub, Dubach and Rutherford s work [9, 10] Hollander and Silberman s work [17] Distributed C [24] Theimer and Hayes work [38] and porch [36] Our work is based on the third approach, as it provides the most optimal ....
