Code cloning refers to the duplication of source code. It is the most common way of reusing
source code in software development. If a bug is identified in one segment of code, all the …

Code segments are similar or identical to each other by copy-paste the original code at
different locations with or without modifications are called code clones. Code clones are …

Source code histories are commonly used by developers and researchers to reason about
how software evolves. Through a survey with 42 professional software developers, we …

Software clone detection is an emerging research area in the field of software engineering.
Software systems are subjected to continuous modifications in source code to improve the …

In this paper, we propose a method to detect duplicate codes based on structure and content
of control statements present in the source codes. The proposed method efficiently finds all …

Most code clone detection approaches identify clones via static source code analysis. Such
approaches are effective and efficient in detecting lexically similar clones. However, they are …

Code fragments with identical or similar functionality are called code clones. This study aims
to detect semantic clones in Java-based programs, focusing on the method-level granularity …

There are a great many clone detection tools proposed in the literature. In this paper, we
investigate the state of clone detection tool evaluation. We begin by surveying the clone …

Code cloning refers to the duplication of source code. It is the most common way of reusing
source code in software development. If a bug is identified in one segment of code, all the …

Code clone detection is an important area of research as reusability is a key factor in
software evolution. Duplicate code degrades the design and structure of software and …
