Alternative Builds dataset for Levels of Binary Equivalence paper

<p>The availability of multiple binaries built from the same sources creates new challenges and opportunities, and raises questions such as: &ldquo;Does build A confirm the integrity of build B?&rdquo; or &ldquo;Can build A reveal a compromised build B?&rdquo;.&nbsp;We introduce levels of equivalence, inspired by clone detection types, and demonstrate the value of these new levels through several experiments.&nbsp; For this purpose, we construct a dataset consisting of Java binaries (jar files) built from the same sources independently by different providers, resulting in 14,156 pairs of binaries in total.&nbsp;</p>
