Load balancing in Process Migration Project

In current scenario distributed operating system is most interesting research topic and the load balancing in a distributed operating system is a really challenging technique. Load in a distributed operating system can be balanced by process migration technique. 

In this research I am focusing on different algorithms for implementing process migration mainly in homogeneous distributed system as well as it also focus on a heterogeneous system. Process migration refers to the act of transferring a process in the middle of its execution from one machine to another in a network. 

In this research I implement the technique for the session replication for authenticate application by doing tomcat clustering. It is a multilayer architecture to confine every functionality independent section of the system in separate layer. 

This architecture is capable of supporting diverse applications due to generic user space interface and dynamic structure that can be modified according to demands. 

The policies and mechanisms for migrating processes in a distributed system become more complicated in a heterogeneous environment, where the hosts may differ in their architecture and operating systems. 

These distributed systems include a large quantity and great diversity of resources which may not be fully utilized without the means to migrate processes to the idle resources. 

In this research, I present an architecture and algorithm for dynamic process migration which can be used for load balancing as well as other non-traditional scenarios such as migration during the graceful degradation of a host.
