Περίληψη: Parsing and processing of binary object files is a preliminary task of several tools, such as linkers, disassemblers, and debuggers. Retargetable tools, i.e. tools that are not limited to a particular platform, have to deal with handling of several object file formats. However, there is no generic system, which can be used for this task at the moment. In this paper, the formal language for the description of object file formats is proposed. This language is used in the existing retargetable decompiler developed within the Lissom project. In this project, the language is used for an object file parsing and its automatic conversion into the internal COFF-based file format. Furthermore, the language is general enough to be used in other retargetable tools. We illustrate the usage of this language on the ELF file format. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
