Abstract:
A method for a dynamic linker to load and run an application that is executed over a plurality of nodes, includes relocating a primary binary of the application from an initial location to an executable location, loading library dependencies, altering a system call table used during execution of the application for the dynamic linker to catch all system calls made by the application, and executing the relocated primary binary from the executable location.
