"“It is possible that its authors used an in-house framework to generate intermediary C code, or they used another completely different programming language,” Soumenkov explained.
For reference, Stuxnet was written entirely in Microsoft Visual C++.
The Kaspersky researchers say certain “slices” of code in the Payload DLL may have been initially compiled in separate object files before being linked in a single DLL, but the slice in question is different. “This slice is different from others, because it was not compiled from C++ sources. It contains no references to any standard or user-written C++ functions.”
But there a few things the researchers do know about the mystery code: It’s object-oriented and event driven, and performs its own set of related activities ideal for network applications.
The highly event driven architecture points to code which was designed to be used in variety of conditions, including asynchronous commutations."
Would I be wrong to gather that they also built an in house map reduce implementation? What year is this code from? Most of the other documents have been from 2007-2009, when did Google first implement map reduce?
