DECOMPILATION [2 records]

Record 1 1994-10-18

English

Subject field(s)
  • Artificial Intelligence
CONT

The term "knowledge compilation" is the exact opposite of the term "knowledge decompilation". Yet both denote the passage to an improved stage of expertise.

CONT

Generative reduction can be viewed as a form of dynamic decompilation of knowledge. As such, it is intended to interpret the student's actions with inferences that support pedagogical actions of increased generality. However, when performed by on-line inferential simulations, dynamic knowledge decompilation may require the coexistence of multiple models of expertise as in WEST, with different levels of articulation, so that diagnosis involves a combination of model tracing, reconstruction and issue recognition.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Intelligence artificielle
CONT

Comme le fait habituellement un professeur, l'expert doit «décompiler» sa connaissance pour expliquer le «pourquoi» et le «comment» de ses propres comportements. Le résultat d'une telle décompilation est facilement transférable de façon déclarative sur un ordinateur [...] Le processus de décompilation ne capture pas nécessairement la connaissance et le comportement expert utilisé au niveau des habiletés.

OBS

Voir agrégat, décompilateur, décomposition, connaissance compilée, effet de désagrégation, de ségrégation.

Record 2 1994-09-27

English

Subject field(s)
  • IT Security
CONT

The worm consisted of some 4000 lines of "C" code and once it was decompiled, the specialists distributed bug fixes to "Sendmail" and "Fingerd", which prevented further spreading. From the decompilation, it appears that the worm was not malicious.

OBS

Decompile: to convert a source program into object code.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Sécurité des TI
CONT

Ce ver comportait quelque 4 000 lignes de codification «C» et après l'avoir décompilé, les spécialistes diffusèrent pour les programmes «Sendmail» et «Fingerd» des correctifs qui empêchèrent toute nouvelle propagation. Le décompilation révéla que ce ver n'était pas malveillant.

OBS

Compilation : traduction d'un programme source, en langage évolué, en un programme objet, en langage machine.
