In its global meaning language translation refers to the process whereby a program which is executable in one computer can be executed in another computer directly to obtain the same result. There are four different ways of approaching translation. The first way is translation by a Translator or a Compier, the second way is Interpretation, the third way is Simulation, the last way is Emulation. This paper introduces the M-C Translator which was designed as the first way of translation. The MUSS 80 language (the subsystem of the UNIVAC Solid State 80 S-4 assembly language system) was chosen as the source language which includes forty-three instructions, using the CYBER COMPASS as the object language. The M-C translator is a two pass translator and is a two pas translator and es written in Fortran Extended language. For this M-C Translation, seven COMPASS subroutines and a set of thirty-five macros were prepared. Each executable source instruction corresponds to a macro, so it will be a macro instruction within the object profram. Subroutines are used to retain and handle the source data representation the same way in the object program as in the source system, and are used to convert the decimal source data into the equivalent binary result into the equivalent USS-80digits before and after arithmetic operations. The source instructions can be classified into three categories. First, therd are some instructions which are meaningless in the object system and are therefore unnecessary to translate, and the remaining instructions should be translated. Second, There are some instructions are required to indicate dual address portions. Third, there are Three instructions which have overflow conditions, which are lacking in the remaining instructions. The construction and functions of the M-C Translator, are explained including some of the subroutines, and macros. The problems, difficulties and the method of solving them, and easier features on this translation are analysed. The study of how to save memory and time will be continued.

This study is aimed at construction of a translator for a functional programming language. For this goal we define a functional programming language which has lazy semantics and develop a translator for it. The execution model selected is the G-machine-based combinator graph reduction. The translator is composed of 4 phases and translates a source program to a C program. The first phase of the translator translates a source program to a enriched lambda- calculus graph, the second phase transforms a lambda-calculus graph into supercombinators, the third phase translates supercombiantors to a G program and the last phase translates the G program to a C program. The final result of the translator, a C program, is compiled to an executable program by C compiler. The translator is implemented in C using compiler development tools such as TACC and Lex, under the UNIX environments. In this paper we present the design and implementation techniques for developing the translator and show results by executing some test problems.

There are two major method for expressing parallelim in functional languages. The one is the strictness analysis and the other the annotation. The strictness analysis is a method that a compiler detects parallelism and expresses the detected information in the object program. The annotation is a method that a programmer detects parallelism and expresses in the source program. This study is on the annotation and is aimed at construction of a translator for a functional language which has an annotation syntax. The translator translates a source program to enriched lambda-calculus graphs. The translator is implemented in C using compiler development tools such as YACC and Lex, under UNIX environments. In this paper we present the design and implementation techniques for developing the front-end of the translator.

s programming education becomes more important in recent years, it is necessary to learn how the source code written by students reflects Object-Oriented(OO) concepts. We present a tool called the Round-Trip Translator(RTT) that transforms the Unified Modeling Language(UML) class diagram and Java source code to provide a web-based environment that provides real-time synchronization of UML and source code. RTT was created by improving existing RTE and is a tool for students who are learning OO concepts to understand how their UML or source code reflects the concepts that user intended. This study compares the efficiency and user- friendliness of RTT with the existing Round-Trip Engineering-based tools. The results show that students have improved understanding of OO concepts through UML and source code translation by using the RTT. We also found out that students were satisfied with the use of the RTT, which provides more efficient and convenient user interface than the existing tools.

Since Korean mobile communication companies each use different mobile platforms, developers must configure and translate their game contents to run under each of the platforms so that they can be serviced correctly. Nevertheless, such translation tasks require lengthy times and costs. This is one of the reasons why a variety of contents could not be provided. In order to mitigate such difficulty, this paper implemented an automatic mobile contents translating system that automatically translates mobile C game contents of the GNEX platform to mobile java contents of the Android platform as a smart platform using a source-level contents translator. The GNEX C-to-Android Java automatic contents translation system helps minimize the amount of time and cost required in servicing contents to different mobile communication companies by promptly translating a platform-specific-content to run under other platforms. Also, the automatic translation and servicing of existing contents increases the reusability of these contents and also the productivity of new contents thereby offering users with a more variety of games.

A new digital clock level translator has been designed in order to produce a clock source of the internal logic circuits. The translator output has 50% duty ratio from small sinusoidal input such as TCXO which oscillates itself in poratable components. The circuit consists of positive and negative comparators, RS latch, charge pump, and reference vol- tage generator. It detects pulse width of the output waveform and feedbacks the control signal to the input com-parator. It detects pulse width of the output waveform and feedbacks the control signal to the input com-parator reference, producing output waveform with valid 50% duty ratio of the digital signal level. The designed level translator can be used as a sampling clock source of ADC, PLL and the colck source of the clock synthesizer. The circuit wasdesigned in a 0.8.mu.m analog CMOS technology with double metal, double poly, and BSIM3 circuit simulation model. From our experimental results, a stable operating characteristics of 50 +3% duty ratio was obtained from the sinusoidal input wave of 370 mV.

C language is frequently used to develop application and system programs. However, programs using C language are vulnerable to buffer overflow attacks. To prevent buffer overflow, programmers have to check boundaries of buffer areas when they develop programs. But vulnerable programs frequently result from improper programming habits and mistakes of programmers. Existing researches for preventing buffer overflow attacks only inform programmers of warnings about vulnerabilities and not remove vulnerabilities in advance so that the programs still include vulnerabilities. In this paper, we propose a function translator which prevents creating programs including buffer overflow vulnerabilities. To prevent creating binary from source including vulnerabilities, the proposed translator searches vulnerable functions which cause buffer overflows, and converts them into secure functions. Accordingly, developing vulnerable programs by programmers which lack in knowledge on security can be prevented.

In the mobile gaming market, it is desirable for a specific content to be served on various platforms. Recently, it is a very important issue in the market for mobile games. This problem incurs extra cost, because we need to redevelop existing contents to be executed on another platforms. Moreover, the release of a new platform has spent much more effort and cost developing many contents in short period of time. Therefore, we need to research about translation techniques that enable the existing contents to run on a different platform. In this paper, we propose translation techniques for mobile games. The techniques can be applied on converting mobile contents to runnable contents on a new platform. To realize it, we design and implement a source-level contents translator which is targeting Android platform using the suggested techniques. Our source-level contents translator is implemented systematically by applying compiler theory. Also, we solve partially translation problems between different programming languages. The translator has been implemented separately divided into three tasks such as kernel porting, library mapping as well as language translation. We expect these techniques to increase utilization of existing mobile games and contribute to vitalizations of mobile contents industry.

This paper presents the java bytecode-to-.NET MSIL intermediate language translator which enables the execution of the java program in .NET environments without JVM(java Virtual Machine), translating bytecodes produced by compiling java programs into MSIL codes. Java, one of the most widely used programming languages recently, is the language invented by James Gosling at Sun Microsystems, which is the next generation language independent of operating systems and hardware platforms. Java source code is compiled into bytecode as intermediate code independent of each platform by compiler, and also executed by JVM. .NET language such as C# and .NET platform in Microsoft Corp. has been developed to meet the needs of programmers, and cope with Java and JVM platform of Sun Microsystems. After compiling, a program written in .NET language is converted to MSIL code, and also executed by .NET platform but not in JVM platform. For this reason, we designed and implemented the java bytecode-to-.NET MSIL translator system for programs written in java language to be executed in the. NET platform without JVM. This work improves the execution speed of programs, enhances the productivity, and provides a environment for programmers to develop application programs without limitations of programming languages.

In this paper, we present a transformation method of source code from a POSIX (Portable Operating System Interface) based source code into an OSEK/VDX (Offene Systeme und deren Schnittstellen fur die Elektronik in Kraftfahrzeugen/Vehicle Distributed eXecutive) source code. As the electronic parts of automobile systems increase, the use of embedded software in automobile systems is also growing. Accordingly, many electronic systems are designed in automobile system with OSEK/VDX. Otherwise, one of the major problems of embedded software would be portability to other OS's. To enhance the portability and interoperability of embedded software, we propose a source code transformation method from POSIX to OSEK/VDX based on API (Application Programming Interface) translation method. Considering the characteristics of the OSEK/VDX which uses OIL (OSEK/VDX Implementation Language) standard, transformation process is performed with source code transformation and OIL code generation. For the validity of the proposed method, the transformation experiment is given using Micro-C OS II and OSEK/VDX with XC167CI micro-controller.
