Transparent java threads migration protocol over Peer2Peer

Abstract

The Java Virtual Machine computing model implements a multi-threading paradigm but its computing model does not define and does not verify the distribution paradigm of the threads over set of JVM instances. Without a distribution paradigm the Java Virtual Machine computing model cannot get any advantage from the theory of parallel Turing Machines. This work formally specifies and verifies the JVM computing model distribution paradigm. An intrinsic transparent thread distribution mechanism over many JVMs relying on different communication technology such as Peer to Peer is an important outcome of the presented solution. Other consequences, such as distributed JVM run-time location, aggregation and reachability, are achieved. Moreover the creation of Virtual Farms of JVMs for Multi-threading applications computing is made possible. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2005.
