CELLS!

[Raul Deluth Miller]

Dr. J. Van Sckalkwyk:
   1. Is a cell a completely independent entity 
   i.e. own stack space, own memory blocks, own
   "processor"?

Which reminds me -- one property of some processes is a requirement
for big chunks of atomic time (e.g. "real-time processes").  These
wouldn't migrate very often (e.g. only during non-critical periods, or
for setup or shutdown) but are going to be an important part of any
real system.

(e.g. If you don't feed data fast enough you ruin the whole process
($$$) and have to start over.  Here, you may only wish to communicate
in a very constrained fashion for a period lasting... hours?)
