Eric and Co. were discussing the "hiding" (obfuscating?) of source code.
I am interested in identifying source code (similarities).
I would like to review literature and available programs for recognizing
plagiarism (of computer source code). (There is potential for a law
suit in this case.)
I have heard of computer science professors using such programs to
thwart would-be cheaters on class programming assignments. From what
I remember these were probabilistic. n% likeness give m% probability
of cheating, etc.
Does anyone have pointers for me?
Cort.
