At least three factors in the existing migration frameworks make them less suitable in Grid systems especially
when the goal is to improve the response times for individual applications. These factors are the separate policies for suspension and migration of executing applications employed by these migratio frameworks, the use of
pre-defined conditions for suspension and migration and
the lack of knowledge of the remaining execution time of
the applications. In this paper we describe a migration
framework for performance oriented Grid systems that implements tightly coupled policies for both suspension and
migration of executing applications and takes into account
both system load and applicatio characteristics. The main
goal of our migration framework is to improve the response
times for individual applications. We also present some
results that demonstrate the usefulness of our migration
framework.
