IWSC 2012 - Sixth International Workshop on Software Clones (IWSC 2012)

Software Clones are identical or similar pieces of code, models or designs. In this, the 6th international workshop on software clones, we will discuss issues in software clone detection, analysis and management, as well as applications to software engineering contexts that can benefit from knowledge of clones. These are important emerging topics in software engineering research and practice. We will have full and short paper presentations and open discussions of broader topics on software clones, such as clone detection methods, clone classification, management, and evolution, the role of clones in software system architecture, quality and evolution, clones in plagiarism, licensing and copyright, and other topics related to similarity in software systems.
