Abstract
A state migration module (SMM) is described herein which seamlessly, efficiently, and correctly transfers application state between user computing devices, or between different interactions with the application on the same device that occur at different respective times. The SMM operates by capturing the current state of an application relative to the operation of a high-level execution platform (such as a browser) on which the application runs, rather than capturing the overall low-level state of the computing that runs the application. The SMM can include additional provisions designed to improve the efficiency of state migration, such as asynchronous migration, incremental delta-based migration, etc.
