	I am doing some reading on task migration and scheduling.
	I was wondering if anyone had references on this sort of 
	material?  I am interested in dynamic task migration in 
	loosely-coupled homogeneous-architecture distributed systems.
	Migration of running or swapped processes is my major
	interest, but papers on load-balancing and/or initial
	process scheduling using these techniques are also good.
	I am interested both in case studies and "Tanenbaum"-style
	literature surveys with lots of references at the end.  I haven't
	had too much success ransacking the journals for this
	material, but then again, I am a novice at doing this sort of
	literature research.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
