Abstract: A method for quality testing a tube bundle is provided. The tube bundle includes a plurality of tubes. The method includes providing a collimated light source and a receiving screen at a first end and a second end of the tube bundle respectively. The second end of the tube bundle is distal from the first end of the tube bundle. The method further includes directing a light beam through the tube bundle, wherein the light beam enters the tube bundle at an incident light intensity. The method includes passing the light beam through each of the plurality of tubes. The method also includes measuring, on the receiving screen, a received light intensity of the light beam exiting each of the plurality of tubes. The method further includes comparing the received light intensity with the incident light intensity, and determining a quality of the tube bundle based on the comparison.

Abstract: Ambiguous stack references in low level software instructions can be resolved when raising a representation of low level software instructions, such as native code. The number of parameters passed to a function can be determined by heuristics, including direct call and indirect call heuristics. Indirect call heuristics can include dataflow-to-target-function, dataflow-to-target-type, import name, and cleanup instructions heuristics. A control flow heuristic can use an alternating direction propagation of seed points to determine the stack height at basic block boundaries. Interpolation can be used within the basic blocks as needed. The raised representation can be used for static analysis of the low level software instructions.
