Distal: A Framework for Implementing Fault-tolerant Distributed Algorithms

André Schiper, Pamela Isabel Delgado Borda, Zarko Milosevic, Martin Biely

We introduce Disal, a new framework that simplifies turning pseudocode of fault tolerant distributed algorithms into efficient executable code. Without proper tool support, even small amounts of pseudocode normally ends up in several thousands of lines of ...

Towards Static Analysis of Virtualization-Obfuscated Binaries

Johannes Kinder

Virtualization-obfuscation protects a program from manual or automated analysis by compiling it into bytecode for a randomized virtual architecture and attaching a corresponding interpreter. Static analysis appears to be helpless on such programs, where on ...

Alternating Control Flow Reconstruction

Johannes Kinder

Unresolved indirect branch instructions are a major obstacle for statically reconstructing a control flow graph (CFG) from machine code. If static analysis cannot compute a precise set of possible targets for a branch, the necessary conservative over-appro ...

Is non-unique decoding necessary?

Suhas Diggavi, Vinod Malathidevi Prabhakaran, Shirin Saeedi Bidokhti

In multi-terminal communication systems, signals carrying messages meant for different destinations are often observed together at any given destination receiver. Han and Kobayashi (1981) proposed a receiving strategy which performs a joint unique decoding ...

Lightweight Modular Staging: A Pragmatic Approach to Runtime Code Generation and Compiled DSLs

Martin Odersky, Tiark Rompf

Good software engineering practice demands generalization and abstraction, whereas high performance demands specialization and concretization. These goals are at odds, and compilers can only rarely translate expressive high-level programs to modern hardwar ...

Lightweight Modular Staging and Embedded Compilers

Tiark Rompf

Programs expressed in a high-level programming language need to be translated to a low-level machine dialect for execution. This translation is usually accomplished by a compiler, which is able to translate any legal program to equivalent low-level code. B ...

DISTAL: Domain-speciﬁc Language for Implementing Distributed Algorithms

Pamela Isabel Delgado Borda

Distributed algorithms research focuses on interactions and communication between independent systems and processors in diverse scenarios. These algorithms are usually written as abstract pseudo-code, and turning them into compilable and runnable code is a ...

Parallel symbolic execution for automated real-world software testing

George Candea, Cristian Zamfir, Vlad Ureche, Stefan Bucur

This paper introduces Cloud9, a platform for automated testing of real-world software. Our main contribution is the scalable parallelization of symbolic execution on clusters of commodity hardware, to help cope with path explosion. Cloud9 provides a system ...

Predicting the Scalability of an STM: A Pragmatic Approach

Rachid Guerraoui, Aleksandar Dragojevic

Conducting a thorough performance evaluation of an STM is very time consuming. Depressingly, even with all this effort, and even with the same application, it can still be hard to predict the performance if the number of underlying threads on which the app ...

Static Analysis of x86 Executables

Johannes Kinder

This dissertation is concerned with static analysis of binary executables in a theoretically well-founded, sound, yet practical way. The major challenge is the reconstruction of a correct control flow graph in presence of indirect jumps, pointer arithmetic ...
