Abstract

Techniques and systems described herein relate to monitoring executions of computer instructions on computing devices based on learning and generating a control flow directed graph. The techniques and systems include determining a learned control flow directed graph for executable code of an application by observing executions of transitions during an observation period and determining destinations of indirect transfers based on the learned control flow directed graph. Next a disassembly of the executable code is determined based on the learned control flow directed graph, the destinations of the transfers, and the executable code.
