Code duplication, plausibly caused by copying source code and slightly modifying it, is often observed in large systems. Clone detection and documentation have been investigated b...

This paper presents a tree-pattern-based method of automatically and accurately finding code clones in program files. Duplicate tree-patterns are first collected by anti-unificati...
Many web applications use a mixture of HTML and scripting language code as the front-end to business services. Analogously to traditional applications, redundant code is introduce...
To date, most clone detection techniques have concentrated on various forms of source code analysis, often by analyzing token streams. In this paper, we introduce a complementary ...
Detecting code clones has many software engineering applications. Existing approaches either do not scale to large code bases or are not robust against minor code modifications. I...
