  • Abstract
    Type analysis is an important part of decompilation, which has a great impact on the readability and the veracity of the output of decompilation. In this paper we discussed a method of type analysis which was based on dataflow analysis .We inference the type of data during the calculating of the dataflow equations, by constructing the type of multiplicate kinds data of the hierarchical structure for the type lattice and designing dataflow equations which have type-related information.
