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 ...

Querypoint Debugging

Claude Petitpierre, Salman Mirghasemi

To fix a bug, software developers have to examine the bug-gy execution to locate defects. They employ different ap-proaches (e.g., setting breakpoints, inserting printing statements in the code) to navigate over buggy execution and inspect program state at ...

Runtime Instrumentation for Precise Flow-Sensitive Type Analysis

Viktor Kuncak, Etienne Kneuss, Philippe Paul Henri Suter

We describe a combination of runtime information and static analysis for checking properties of complex and configurable systems. The basic idea of our approach is to 1) let the program execute and thereby read the important dynamic configuration data, the ...

Source-to-source architecture transformation for performance optimization in BIP

Joseph Sifakis

Behavior, Interaction, Priorities (BIP) is a component framework for constructing systems from a set of atomic components by using two kinds of composition operators: interactions and priorities. In this paper, we present a method that transforms the inter ...

An Abstract Interpretation-Based Framework for Control Flow Reconstruction from Binaries

Johannes Kinder

Due to indirect branch instructions, analyses on executables commonly suffer from the problem that a complete control flow graph of the program is not available. Data flow analysis has been proposed before to statically determine branch targets in many cas ...

Predicting User-Cell Association in Cellular Networks from Tracked Data

Jean-Yves Le Boudec

We consider the problem of predicting user location in the form of user-cell association in a cellular wireless network. This is motivated by resource optimization, for example switching base transceiver stations on or off to save on network energy consump ...

Path invariants

Dirk Thilo Beyer

The success of software verification depends on the ability to find a suitable abstraction of a program automatically. We propose a method for automated abstraction refinement which overcomes some limitations of current predicate discovery schemes. In curr ...

Path Invariants

Dirk Thilo Beyer, Andrey Rybalchenko

The success of software verification depends on the ability to find a suitable abstraction of a program automatically. We propose a new method for automated abstraction refinement, which overcomes the inherent limitations of predicate discovery schemes. In ...
