Panorama: Recovering the High-Level Architecture of Embedded Systems

GrammaTech proposes Panorama, an architecture recovery platform for embedded binary software that:- Identifies component boundaries and data flows between components.- Helps determine critical, security-relevant locations in the software.- Provides the ability to drill down into individual components to inspect critical access points for flaws.To be an effective analysis platform for the auditor, Panorama will maintain a rich database of information about the binary software under stduy.This database will be designed to incorporate analysis results from a variety of tools, both static and dynamic, enabling Panorama to accumulate and leverage as much information as possible, thereby enhancing the auditor's ability to rapidly and accurately understand and evaluate the software's architecture.
