  abstract= "Migrating a thread while preserving its state is a useful
     mechanism to have in situations where load balancing within
     applications with intensive data processing is required.
     Strong mobility systems, however, are rarely developed or
     implemented as they introduce a number of major challenges
     into the implementation of the system. This is due to the
     fact that the underlying infrastructure that most computers
     operate on was never designed to accommodate such a system,
     and because of this it actually impedes the development of
     these systems to some degree. Using a system based around a
     virtual machine, such as Microsoft\&\#8217;s Common Language
     Runtime (CLR), circumnavigates many of these problems by
     abstracting away system differences. In this paper we
     outline the architecture of the threading mechanism in the
     shared source version of the CLR known as the Shared Source
     Common Language Infrastructure (SSCLI). We also outline how
     we are porting strong mobility into the SSCLI, taking
     advantage of its virtual machine."
