Abstract

Plagiarism is not only found in the academic work but also in the industries dealing with software designing. Plagiarism is becoming a serious problem for academician community. Academics can detect similarity of source code files with the help of plagiarism detection tools. In this paper we present JSIM (Java Similarity) tool to find out the Similarity between Source codes. Two source codes will be matched at function's level or method's level with the help of JSIM. With the help of JSIM tool teachers can find the similarity between source code and according to the similarity, teacher can easily give marks to the students in an assignment of programming subject.
