Appl. No.:

15/082162

Inventors:

- Mountain View CA, US

Derek L. Schuff - Sunnyvale CA, US

International Classification:

H04L 29/06

Abstract:

Methods, systems, and computer program products are provided for machine-specific instruction set translation. One example method includes identifying computing devices, each device having a respective software component installed, the software component including a translator component for translating a program in a portable format to a machine-specific instruction set, and a sandbox component for executing programs translated to the machine-specific instruction set on the computing device using software-based fault isolation; identifying computing devices having a given hardware configuration; and transmitting another translator component and another sandbox component to each of the identified computing devices. Each of the identified computing devices having the given hardware configuration is configured to receive the components and to configure its software component to use the received components in lieu of the corresponding components.

International Classification:

G06F 9/45
G06F 21/60

Abstract:

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for preserving code safety of application code that is received in a portable, instruction-set-neutral format. One aspect of the subject matter described in this specification can be embodied in methods that include the actions of receiving a portable code file that is implemented in an instruction-set-neutral and source code independent format; translating the portable code file into native object code for execution on a particular instruction set architecture; generating a native executable for the particular instruction set architecture using the native object code; and validation the native executable using a trusted validator prior to execution of the native executable.
