In distributed computing, code mobility is the ability for running programs , codes or objects to be migrated (or moved) from one machine (host) to another. This is the process of moving code across the nodes of a network as opposed to distributed computation where the data is moved. It is common practice in distributed systems to require the movement of code or processes between parts of the system, instead of data . The purpose of code mobility is to support sophisticated operations. For example a user A can send a running program to another user B and the program continues to run as if it was still on the original machine, without the need to restart the program on the recipient's machine.
