1. A method for storing transient state information, the method comprising: defining a first logical storage space within at least one storage device, wherein the first logical storage space is defined according to at least one characteristic of a first logical memory space in a volatile storage medium utilized for storing transient state information of a processing system; copying transient state information from a first logical location within the first logical memory space to a second logical location within the first logical storage space; determining at predetermined time intervals whether the transient state information stored at the first location within the first logical memory space has changed; and moving the transient state information stored at the second logical location within the first logical storage space to a second logical storage space, in response to determining that the transient information stored at the first logical location within the first logical memory space has changed, wherein there is a one-to-one mapping between the first logical memory space and the first logical storage space.
