Description

Every GridImplementation should has some kind of a backup and restore functionality. The request is, that every grid provides two methods,

backup( string filename )
restore( string filename ) 

or better

backup(std::ostream)
restore(std::istream) 

to backup and restore a grid's status. This should be no problem for all the grids and it's already working for 5 of 6 grids. For long parallel runs this is an essential method and would round up our nice parallel interface.
