*Further Information*

*Grid Computing has been around for as long as the modern computers themselves yet have failed in obtaining a clear standard which would define its implementation across the computing domain. This project focuses on the Process Migration aspects of Grid Computing/Clusters for Java Applications. The available solutions for Java Process Migration and Mobile Agent Development require high level of Java Expertise for the user itself let alone the developer. These solutions also require changes to be made in the JVM (Java Virtual Machine) which is a hassle for SMEs who cannot afford to put such high level solutions into work. The project solves the problem by establishing a method of Process Migration which will not need any changes in the JVM and will not require the user to know the internals of the implemented method. The user will only have to worry about developing his code remaining totally aloof of what will be done to it later.*
