Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product for controlling migration of a VM operable on a first site and a second site. The system includes an identify component for identifying the second site; a request component for sending a consent request message to a software component, wherein the consent request message comprises at least one of an identifier of the VM and an identifier of the second site; a calculate component, operable on the software component and responsive to receiving the consent request message, for determining consent for the second site; a send component, responsive to a positive determination, for sending a consent message; and a migrate component, responsive to receiving the consent message, for migrating the VM from the first site to the second site.

Abstract: An execution control method is described for use in a translator (19) which converts subject code (17) into target code (21). The translator (19) includes a translator trampoline function (191) which is called from a translator run loop (190) and which in turn calls either to a translator code generator (192) to generate target code, or else calls previously generated target code (212) for execution. Control then returns to the translator trampoline function (191) to make a new call, or returns to the translator run loop (190). Other aspects include making context switches through the trampoline function (191) and setting first and second calling conventions either side of the trampoline function (191). Jumping directly or indirectly between target code blocks (212) during execution is also described.
