Abstract:
A system for discovering programming variants. The system analyzes system calls from executing a program to generate programming code or executable for a particular OS and/or CPU that would perform the same or similar actions as the program. The code that is generated is then mutated, augmented, and/or changed to create variations of the program which still functions and/or obtains the same objectives as the original code.
