I'm attempting to implement a distributed loading algorithm using
PVM.  Looked at the WWW sites and looked through the manual.

Does anyone know of a way in PVM to take an executing process
on one machine and transfer it to another?

It looks like you can spawn processes and assign them to specific machines
before they start, but I didn't see anything that would allow you
to move a process from one machine to another after its started running.

If you know of a way to do this, or know of somewhere I can get some help,
please e-mail me.

Thanks in advance,
