COGNATIO project http://cognatio.sourceforge.net/
--------------------------------------------------------------
COGNATIO is a mechanism that allows to create live process core dump with minimum process
stopping time.
The gcore is a useful tool to make live process core dump, however the target process
needs to stop until the core dump file is completely created.
COGNATIO allows process to stop short time (typically sub-second) to save live core dump
image, and the other context covert image to core file.

TCPCP2 project http://tcpcp2.sourceforge.net/
--------------------------------------------------------------
TCP connection passing (TCPCP) is a mechanism that allows cooperating applications to pass

- Kernel live patching which can fix/overwrite on-memory kernel's instruction without
restarting kernel.
- C++ process live patching which can fix/overwrite on-memory C++ process's instruction
