SIND: A Framework for Binary Translation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recent work with dynamic optimization in platform independent, virtual machine based languages such as Java has sparked interest in the possibility of applying similar techniques to arbitrary compiled binary programs. Systems such as Dynamo, DAISY, and FX!32 exploit dynamic optimization techniques to improve performance of native or foreign architecture binaries. However, research in this area is complicated by the lack of openly licensed, freely available, and platform-independent experimental frameworks. SIND aims to fill this void by providing a easily-extensible and flexible framework for research and development of applications and techniques of binary translation. Current research focuses are dynamic optimization of running binaries and dynamic security augmentation and integrity assurance.

Investigating Translation Strategies of Culture-Specific Items in Alignment with Nord’s Binary Translation Typology: A Case Study of Unaccustomed Earth
Culture is an extremely complex concept. Translating cultural elements is a demanding task due to the fact that these elements comprise specific meanings and implications belonging exclusively to the lan-guage and culture from which they have emerged. Regarding this point, the present article investigated the strategies employed for translating culture-specific items (CSIs) in an English nov...
متن کاملTranslation Evaluation in Educational Settings for Training Purposes
The following article describes different methods and techniques used in educational settings for translation evaluation. Translation evaluation is the placing of value on a translation i.e. awarding a mark, even if only a binary pass/fail one. In the present study, different features of the texts chosen for evaluation were firstly considered and then scoring the t...
متن کاملReflecting on Backward Design for Knowledge Translation; Comment on “A Call for a Backward Design to Knowledge Translation”
In a recent Editorial for this journal, El-Jardali and Fadlallah proposed a new framework for Knowledge Translation (KT) in healthcare. Many such frameworks already exist; thus, new entrants to the field must be scrutinized in regard to their unique contributions to advancing understanding and practice. The El-Jardali and Fadlallah framework focuses on policy-level discussions, a relatively und...
متن کاملDevelopment of the Translating Allied Health Knowledge (TAHK) Framework
Background While evidence-based practice is a familiar concept to allied health clinicians, knowledge translation (KT) is less well known and understood. The need for a framework that enables allied health clinicians to access and engage with KT was identified. The aim of this paper is to describe the development of the Translating Allied Health Knowledge (TAHK) Framework. M...
متن کاملExperiences Constructing a Lightweight SPARC Interpreter for a Dynamic Binary Translator
Dynamic binary translation is an important area for compiler research, because additional information available at runtime can substantially improve the effectiveness of optimizations. The difficulty lies in creating a system capable of gathering runtime information without slowing down the running executable. Several such systems have been created (Dynamo, DynamoRIO, FX!32, etc.), but their us...
