CONTEXT: Reusing software by means of copy and paste is a frequent activity in software
development. The duplicated code is known as a software clone and the activity is known as …

The ecosystem of open source software (OSS) has been growing considerably in size. In
addition, code clones-code fragments that are copied and pasted within or between software …

This paper presents a novel code clone search technique that is accurate, incremental, and
scalable to hundreds of million lines of code. Our technique incorporates multiple code …

Code clone detection is an important research problem that has attracted wide attention in
software engineering. Many methods have been proposed for detecting code clone, among …

Clone detection on large code repository is necessary for many big code analysis tasks. The
goal is to provide rich information on identical and similar code across projects. Detecting …

A code clone is a code fragment that is similar or identical to other code fragments in the
source code. Code clones generally occurs in large systems and affects the system …

Clone detection techniques quality and performance evaluation require a system along with
its clone oracle, that is a reference database of all accepted clones in the investigated …

As software engineering advances and the code demand rises, the prevalence of code
clones has increased. This phenomenon poses risks like vulnerability propagation …

Even though the use of Open Source Software (OSS) might seem paradoxical in Defense
environments, this has been proven to be wrong. The use of OSS does not harm security; on …

Software Cloning is the typical example where an interdisciplinary approach may bring
additional elements into the community's discussion. In fact, little research has been done in …
