Proceedings of the Workshop on Binary Instrumentation and Applications

TL;DRAbstract

Welcome to the Workshop on Binary Instrumentation and Applications 2009, the third in the series. Instrumentation is an effective technique to observe and verify program properties. This technique has been used for diverse purposes, from profile guided compiler optimizations, to microarchitectural research via simulations, to enforcement of software security policies. While instrumentation can be performed at the source level as well as binary level, the latter has the advantage of having the ability to instrument the whole program, including dynamically linked libraries. Binary instrumentation also obviates the need to have source code. As a result, instrumentation at the binary level has become immensely useful and has growing popularity. This workshop provides an opportunity for developers and users of binary instrumentation to exchange ideas for building better instrumentation systems and new use cases for binary instrumentation, static or dynamic.
