Rapid Trust Establishment for Pervasive Personal Computing

In the emerging Internet Suspend/Resume mobile computing model, users exploit pervasive deployments of inexpensive, mass- market PC hardware rather than carrying portable hardware. ISR´s driving vision is that plummeting hardware costs will someday eliminate the need to carry computing environments in portable computers. Instead, ISR will deliver an exact replica of the last checkpointed state of a user´s entire computing environment (including the operating system, applications, files, and customiza- tions), on demand over the Internet to hardware located nearby.
