 Several techniques have been proposed for adding persistence to the
 Java language environment. This paper describes a scheme based on
 checkpointing the Java Virtual Machine, and compares the scheme to
 other techniques.  Checkpointing offers two unique advantages: first,
 the implementation is independent of the JVM implementation, and
 therefore survives JVM updates; second, because checkpointing saves and
 restores execution state, even threads become persistent entities.
