Abstract : Compiler compilers are in widespread use, but decompiler compilers are a more novel concept. This paper sets out a technique for the decompilation of object code back to source code, and describes a working decompiler generator. Existing and potential applications include reverse engineering, quality assessment, debugging and safety-critical code validation or veri cation. 1,
