....prepared for linking. The following sections present an overview of the steps taken to reoptimize a binary. In addition to the descriptions found in this thesis, further detail into select topics can be found in a joint technical report by Merten and Thiems [9] a master s thesis by M. S. Thiems [10], and a master s thesis by C. N. George [4] 2.1 Basic Optimization Process Figure 2.1 depicts the basic optimization process. The first step, x86toM, converts the binary file into IMPACT s intermediate representation called Mcode. This step actually consists of two phases. In the first phase, ....

See Section 4. 2 in [10] for additional information. 5.3 Mcode Operands Each operand is tagged with an operand type, followed by a name and an optional data type. All registers are of operand type macro, printed as mac . The data types for the registers are tagged according to their size, as in Table 5.1. All integer ....
