Volunteer Computing - Sarmenta (2001) (Correct)
....We decided to rename this term since dynamic obfuscation may sound like obfuscation that happens as the program runs (e.g. as in dynamic compilation ) which is not the case here. techniques used by polymorphic computer viruses, which use them to hide themselves from anti virus programs [28]. Although very difficult, deobfuscating polymorphic viruses is not impossible because viruses, being self reproductive (by definition) contain the obfuscating code. Thus, once one version has been cracked and disassembled, it is possible to reverse engineer this code and develop an antidote ....
....is an old technique that has been around since programmers first started to worry about protecting their intellectual property from reverse engineering by competitors. In 1992, Cohen studied the application of obfuscation towards protecting operating systems from attacks by hackers or viruses [28]. At around the same time, these same techniques were actually being used already by virus writers themselves in polymorphic or evolutionary computer viruses. More recently, obfuscation has gained a lot of interest with the advent of Java, whose bytecode binary executable format is very easy to ....

Recently, software watermarking [12, 16, 21, 36] tamper proofing [4, 5, 23, 45] and obfuscation [10, 13 15] have emerged as alternatives to other forms of intellectual property protection of software. Obfuscation attempts to transform a program into an equivalent one that is harder to reverse engineer. Tamper proofing causes a program to malfunction when it detects that it has been modified.
