Abstract

Code clone detection is an established topic in software engineering research. Many detection algorithms have been proposed and refined but very few exploit the inherent parallelism present in the problem, making large scale code clone detection difficult. To alleviate this shortcoming, we present a new technique to efficiently perform clone detection using the popular MapReduce paradigm. Preliminary experimental results demonstrates speed-up and scale-up of the proposed approach.
