NetChain: Scale-Free Sub-RTT Coordination (2018, background): “Note that in essence the process is similar to live virtual machine migrations [29] and reconfigurations for serverbased chain replication [24].”
Survey (2016, background): “In this way it is ensured that network packets are not redirected to the failed (formerly active) VM, but to the working VM (formerly passive) as soon as it becomes available [Clark et al. 2005].”
Mobile Edge Computing (2021, background): “VM migration is costly in general [12], and in the case of MEC, it is further complicated by the heterogeneity in device software, mobile edge host capabilities, and the stringent delay constraints of some applications.”

A survey on techniques for improving the energy efficiency of large-scale distributed systems (2014, background): “Live migration [Clark et al. 2005] greatly improves the capacities and the features of Cloud environments: it facilitates fault management, load balancing, and low-level system maintenance.”
A Scheduling Strategy on Load Balancing of Virtual Machine Resources in Cloud Computing Environment (2010, background): “Most of the load balancing exists in VM migration [ 5 ].”
Computation Offloading Toward Edge Computing (2019, background): “It bears a superficial resemblance to live migration [133] and is challenging on unstable WANs.”

Mistral: Dynamically Managing Power, Performance, and Adaptation Cost in Cloud Infrastructures (2010, background): “While VM technology has made great strides in reducing the downtime during migration to a few hundred milliseconds (e.g., [1]), the end-to-end performance and power consumption impacts can still be significant.”
Mobile cloud computing: A survey (2013, unknown): “VMmigration refers to transferring the memory image of a VM from a source server to the destination serverwithout stopping its execution [35].”
From Cloud to Fog Computing: A Review and a Conceptual Live VM Migration Framework (2017, background): “[83] presented six stages of pre-copy migration process between two hosts:”
Live virtual machine migration with adaptive, memory compression (2009, methodology): “Live migration techniques in the state of the art mainly use pre-copy approach [8][9], which first transfers all memory pages and then copies pages just modified during the last round iteratively.”
