Hi,

I'm currently working on so-colled proc_mobility behavior. It is a prat of my thesis which aims to add agent migration to eXAT platform. proc_mobility doesn't depend on eXAT platform so can be used in whatever you want. Here is link to the repository https://github.com/michalwski/proc_mobility/tree/over_tcp. The brach "over_tcp" has more features than master. Unfortunately I haven't write any documentation so far, so feel free to ask if you think that proc_mobility can be useful.

Best regards,
Michał Piotrowski
