Binary to binary coded decimal converter

A binary coded input signal is converted to a binary coded decimal signal having N decades by employing N four bit shift registers. The bits of the input signal are sequentially supplied, in order, to the least significant position of the register for the units decade, with the most significant bit of the input signal being applied to the units register first. Each of the registers includes a right shift-parallel load mode control input terminal. In response to the sum of the values stored in each register and the binary value 0011 being less than the binary value 1000, the mode control input terminal is activated to shift the register contents one bit to the right. In response to the sum being greater than 1000, the mode control input terminal is activated to load the sum into the register.

Systems and methods for architecture-independent binary code analysis

Binaries configured for execution within respective computing environments may be disassembled into architecture-specific intermediate (AIL) representations. The AIL representations may be converted into canonical intermediate language (CIL) representations. The CIL representations may comprise normalized, architecture-independent code configured to characterize functionality of respective components of a binary (e.g., respective functions or the like). Feature vectors may be extracted from the CIL representations. The feature vectors may be used to identify components of respective binaries, assign security classifications to the binaries, and/or the like.

High speed direct-binary to binary-coded-decimal converter and scaler

Telemetry (pulse code modulated) digital system usually sends binary numbers representing some parameter that is not value of binary number. Received binary number must be scaled and converted to binary coded decimal to operate readout device to display true value. Group of adders speed up binary number conversion and scaling in one operation.

Using modularity to segment binary code

We consider the problem of recovering program structure from compiled binary code. We first extract the call graph and layout of functions in memory from the compiled code and represent this information in a graphical format. We then employ Louvain's modularity algorithm to identify clusters of functions that are considered to be related. We find that the quality and properties of clusters extracted by our technique are greatly impacted by the relative importance we assign to the call graph and the ordering of functions in memory.

Systems and methods for binary code analysis

Human-readable (HR) code may be derived from a binary. The HR code may be configured to have statistical properties suitable for machine-learned (ML) translation. The HR code may comprise source code, intermediate code, assembly code, or the like. A machine-learned translator may be configured to translate the HR code into labels comprising semantic information pertaining to respective functions of the binary, such as a function name, role, or the like. Execution of the binary may be blocked in response to translating the HR code to a label associated with malware, such as cryptocurrency mining malware or the like. Conversely, the binary may be permitted to proceed to execution in response to determining that the translation is free from labels indicative of malware.

Optimal periodic binary codes of lengths 28 to 64

Results from computer searches performed to find repeated binary phase coded waveforms with optimal periodic autocorrelation functions are discussed. The best results for lengths 28 to 64 are given. The code features of major concern are where (1) the peak sidelobe in the autocorrelation function is small and (2) the sum of the squares of the sidelobes in the autocorrelation function is small.

Single-shot x-ray phase-contrast and dark-field imaging based on coded binary phase mask

We introduce a coded-mask-based multi-contrast imaging method for high-resolution phase-contrast and dark-field imaging. The method uses a binary phase mask designed to provide an ultra-high-contrast pattern and reference-free single-shot measurement and an algorithm based on maximum-likelihood optimization and automatic differentiation to perform simultaneous reconstruction of absorption, phase, and dark-field object images. Further, we demonstrate that the method has great potential for real-time quantitative phase imaging and wavefront sensing when combined with deep learning.

Digital system detects binary code patterns containing errors

System of square loop magnetic cores associated with code input registers to react to input code patterns by reference to a group of control cores in such a manner that errors are canceled and patterns containing errors are accepted for amplification and processing. This technique improves reception capabilities in PCM telemetry systems.
