Method and apparatus for binarization and arithmetic coding of a data value

Binarization a data value comprises binarizing the minimum of the data value and a predetermined cut-off value in accordance with a first binarization scheme, in order to yield a primary prefix. If the data value is greater than the cut-off value, binarizing a difference of the data value minus the predetermined cut-off value in accordance with a second binarization scheme to obtain a binary suffix, the first binarization scheme being different from the second binarization scheme, and appending the primary suffix to the primary prefix is performed. A very effective compression of data values may be achieve by using the binarization scheme for preparing the syntax elements for the arithmetic coding, the binarization schemes substantially being a combination of two different binarization schemes, and by using binary arithmetic coding instead of m-ary arithmetic coding for coding the binarized syntax elements.

Automatically generating test cases for binary code

The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for automatically generating test cases for binary code. Embodiments of the present invention can automatically generate test inputs for systematically covering program execution paths within binary code. By monitoring program execution of the binary code on existing or random test cases, branch predicates on execution paths can be dynamically inferred. These inferred branch predicates can then be used to drive the program along previously unexplored execution paths, enabling the learning of further execution paths. Embodiments of the invention can be used in combination with other analysis and testing techniques to provide better test coverage and expose program errors.

Binary arithmetic decoding apparatus and methods using a pipelined structure

Binary arithmetic decoding methods and apparatus are provided. A first decoded bit and a first set of decoding parameters are generated using a previously generated set of decoding parameters. A second decoded bit and a second set of decoding parameters are generated using the first set of decoding parameters. If the first decoded bit is a last bit of a syntax element, the second set of decoding parameters is disregarded in generating subsequent decoded bits. The generation of the first and second decoded bits and determination of whether the first decoded bit is a last bit of a syntax element, e.g., a de-binarizing operation, may be pipelined such that the determination of whether the first decoded bit is a last bit of a syntax element occurs concurrent with and / or after generation of the second decoded bit and the second set of decoding parameters.

Compression of program instructions using advanced sequential correlation

Compressing program binaries with reduced compression ratios. One or several pre-processing acts are performed before performing compression using a local sequential correlation oriented compression technology such as PPM, or one of its variants or improvements. One pre-processing act splits the binaries into several substreams that have high local sequential correlation. Such splitting takes into consideration the correlation between common fields in different instructions as well as the correlation between different fields in the same instruction. Another pre-processing reschedules binary instructions to improve the degree of local sequential correlation without affecting dependencies between instructions. Yet another pre-processing act replaces common operation codes in the instruction with a symbols from a second alphabet, thereby distinguishing between operation codes that have a particular value, and other portions of the instruction that just happen to have the same value. Local sequential correlation compression such as PPM is then performed.
