Hi guys,
        are there any good papers or articles which describe how packing/packer techniques work( basic packers to difficult polymorphic packers)  and also is there any way we can automate unpacking ,so far i've only seen tutorials which describe unpacking from ollydbg (by setting Breakpt) and use imprec or any such tool to fix import table.
Basically i was looking for the different steps followed by packers to pack them (like they first compress using such an algorithm and then they alter import table etc ).

Thanks in advance
