摘要：

We investigate the problem of creating complex software obfuscation for mobile applications. We construct complex software obfuscation from sequentially applying simple software obfuscation methods. We define several desirable and undesirable properties of such transformations, including idempotency and monotonicity. We empirically evaluate a set of 7 obfuscation methods on 240 Android Packages (APKs). We show that many obfuscation methods are idempotent or monotonous.
