A Review: Clone Detection in Web Application Using Clone Metrics
Harpreet Kaur · 2014
In software engineering, the concept of code reuse is very common. Code reuse is the concept of copying and pasting the code in multiple places in the same software or different software without modification. In the last few decades numerous code clone detection technique and tools have been proposed for capturing duplicated redundant code, which is also known as software clone. In this study, we propose an efficient clone detection technique which is used to detect clones in various programming language. This method of clone detection can also be implemented to more complex application such as web applications. A tool is developed in JAVA for the system and detects the higher-level clone called Directory Clones in JAVA. Keywords:- Software engineering, code reuse, code clone detection techniques, higher-level clone.
