Resolving Conditional Implicit Calls to Improve Static and Dynamic Analysis in Android Apps
Jordan Samhi, René Just, Michael D. Ernst, Tegawendé F. Bissyandé, Jacques Klein
An implicit call is a mechanism that triggers the execution of a method m without a direct call to m in the code being analyzed. For instance, in Android apps the Thread.start() method implicitly executes the Thread.run() method.
