Evaluating Software Maintenance Cost Using Functional Redundancy Metrics
Found in: 26th Annual International Computer Software and Applications Conference
By Takeo Imai, Yoshio Kataoka, Tetsuji Fukaya
Publication Date: August 2002

CCFinder: A Multilinguistic Token-Based Code Clone Detection System for Large Scale Source Code
Found in: IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering
By Toshihiro Kamiya, Shinji Kusumoto, Katsuro Inoue
Publication Date: July 2002
pp. 654-670

A code clone is a code portion in source files that is identical or similar to another. Since code clones are believed to reduce the maintainability of software, several code clone detection techniques and tools have been proposed. This paper prop...

Modeling clones evolution through time series

By G. Antoniol, M. Di Penta, G. Casazza, E. Merlo
Publication Date: November 2001
pp. 273
The actual effort to evolve and maintain a software system is likely to vary depending on the amount of clones (i.e., duplicated or slightly different code fragments) present in the system. This paper presents a method for monitoring and predicting c...
