Register Liveness Analysis for Optimizing Dynamic Binary Translation

by Mark Probst, Andreas Krall, Bernhard Scholz - Ninth Working Conference on Reverse Engineering (WCRE’02 , 2002
"... schani,andi,scholz¢ Dynamic binary translators compile machine code from a source architecture to a target architecture at run time. Due to the hard time constraints of just-in-time compilation only highly efficient optimization algorithms can be employed. Common problems are an insufficient number ..."
Abstract - Cited by 4 (0 self) - Add to MetaCart
of registers on the target architecture and the different handling of condition codes in source and target architecture. Without optimizations useless stores and computations are generated by the dynamic binary translator and cause significant performance losses. In order to eliminate these useless operations

Valgrind: A framework for heavyweight dynamic binary instrumentation

by Nicholas Nethercote, Julian Seward - In Proceedings of the 2007 Programming Language Design and Implementation Conference , 2007
"... Dynamic binary instrumentation (DBI) frameworks make it easy to build dynamic binary analysis (DBA) tools such as checkers and profilers. Much of the focus on DBI frameworks has been on performance; little attention has been paid to their capabilities. As a result, we believe the potential of DBI ha ..."

Dynamo: A Transparent Dynamic Optimization System

by Vasanth Bala, Evelyn Duesterwald , Sanjeev Banerjia - ACM SIGPLAN NOTICES , 2000
"... We describe the design and implementation of Dynamo, a software dynamic optimization system that is capable of transparently improving the performance of a native instruction stream as it executes on the processor. The input native instruction stream to Dynamo can be dynamically generated (by a JIT ..."

Live Migration of Virtual Machines

by Christopher Clark, Keir Fraser, Steven H, Jakob Gorm Hansen, Eric Jul, Christian Limpach, Ian Pratt, Andrew Warfield - In Proceedings of the 2nd ACM/USENIX Symposium on Networked Systems Design and Implementation (NSDI , 2005
"... Migrating operating system instances across distinct physical hosts is a useful tool for administrators of data centers and clusters: It allows a clean separation between hardware and software, and facilitates fault management, load balancing, and low-level system maintenance. By carrying out the ma ..."
Abstract - Cited by 613 (14 self) - Add to MetaCart
the majority of migration while OSes continue to run, we achieve impressive performance with minimal service downtimes; we demonstrate the migration of entire OS instances on a commodity cluster, recording service downtimes as low as 60ms. We show that that our performance is sufficient to make live migration

Dynamic taint analysis for automatic detection, analysis, and signature generation of exploits on commodity software

by James Newsome, Dawn Song - In Network and Distributed Systems Security Symposium , 2005
"... Software vulnerabilities have had a devastating effect on the Internet. Worms such as CodeRed and Slammer can compromise hundreds of thousands of hosts within hours or even minutes, and cause millions of dollars of damage [32, 51]. To successfully combat these fast automatic Internet attacks, we nee ..."

, and hence works on commodity software. To demonstrate this idea, we have implemented TaintCheck, a mechanism that can perform dynamic taint analysis by performing binary rewriting at run time. We show that TaintCheck reliably detects most types of exploits. We found that TaintCheck produced no false

Pin: building customized program analysis tools with dynamic instrumentation

by Chi-keung Luk, Robert Cohn, Robert Muth, Harish Patil, Artur Klauser, Geoff Lowney, Steven Wallace, Vijay Janapa, Reddi Kim Hazelwood - In PLDI ’05: Proceedings of the 2005 ACM SIGPLAN conference on Programming language design and implementation , 2005
"... Robust and powerful software instrumentation tools are essential for program analysis tasks such as profiling, performance evaluation, and bug detection. To meet this need, we have developed a new instrumentation system called Pin. Our goals are to provide easy-to-use, portable, transparent, and eff ..."
Abstract - Cited by 957 (34 self) - Add to MetaCart
original, uninstrumented behavior. Pin uses dynamic compilation to instrument executables while they are running. For efficiency, Pin uses several techniques, including inlining, register re-allocation, liveness analysis, and instruction scheduling to optimize instrumentation. This fully automated approach

Wattch: A Framework for Architectural-Level Power Analysis and Optimizations

by David Brooks, Vivek Tiwari, Margaret Martonosi - In Proceedings of the 27th Annual International Symposium on Computer Architecture , 2000
"... Power dissipation and thermal issues are increasingly significant in modern processors. As a result, it is crucial that power/performance tradeoffs be made more visible to chip architects and even compiler writers, in addition to circuit designers. Most existing power analysis tools achieve high ..."

"... Abstract: We have developed a toolbox and graphic user interface, EEGLAB, running under the cross-platform MATLAB environment (The Mathworks, Inc.) for processing collections of single-trial and/or averaged EEG data of any number of channels. Available functions include EEG data, channel and event i ..."

Optimization Flow Control, I: Basic Algorithm and Convergence

by Steven H. Low, David E. Lapsley - IEEE/ACM TRANSACTIONS ON NETWORKING , 1999

We view network links and sources as processors of a distributed computation system to solve the dual problem using gradient projection algorithm. In thi ..."

Eraser: a dynamic data race detector for multithreaded programs

by Stefan Savage, Michael Burrows, Greg Nelson, Patrick Sobalvarro, Thomas Anderson - ACM Transaction of Computer System , 1997
"... Multi-threaded programming is difficult and error prone. It is easy to make a mistake in synchronization that produces a data race, yet it can be extremely hard to locate this mistake during debugging. This paper describes a new tool, called Eraser, for dynamically detecting data races in lock-based ..."
