I'm not certain if this approach will do what you need, but it might be worth looking into. I use a program called "screen" to have multiple terminal windows running in one ssh window. The program also allows you to detach processes and reattach them later. People use this to connect remotely to a machine, detach the processes they're working on and close down the remote machine, then go home and reattach it on their main machine to pick up where they left off. Perhaps there's a way you could reattach your lost processes if they were run within screen?
