Zusammenfassung
In this summary, the three main contributions of the thesis ”Cooperative Android App Analysis” are presented. The first contribution proposes the cooperative analysis approach. The centerpiece of this approach is the AQL (Android App Analysis Query Language) – a domain specific query language. It allows formulating (AQL-)queries in order to interact with arbitrary analysis tools. As counterpart AQL-Answer come into play, which are able to universally but well structured embody any kind of analysis result. The second contribution uses the AQL to define reproducible benchmarks that can be used to automatically evaluate analysis tools on such. Various benchmarks are then used in the third contribution to conduct a thorough evaluation of 13 Android taint analysis tools. Please note, in the context of the thesis, the cooperative analysis implementation is tailored to Android taint analysis, however, the concept can be applied to any kind of analysis.
