Uses for Logical Machine Migration

The authors suggest in [1] that the DLMS is not suitable for load balancing in distributed computing. They prefer safepointing of executing programs and user mobility as applications for logical machine migration. A theoretical strongpoint is machine independence: a interpreted logical machine is not bound to a specific hardware platform and a specific processor.
