Leveraging clone detection for Internet-scale source code search
Iman Keivanloo · 2012
Different approaches to search for source code on the Internet exist. In this paper, we propose techniques that support a special type of Internet-scale code search using two novel syntactical and semantic clone search and detection methods. The syntactical search focuses on providing a scalable real-time engine, while the semantic clone detection is being used to enrich our knowledge base during the offline processing step.
