A Combined Weighted Approach to Detect Code Cloning?

Code clone detection is one of the useful and required approach to generate the reliable and effective code. There are number of approaches defined by earlier researchers to detect the cloning. These approaches include the textual, statistical and token based approaches. In this present work, three main categories of code clone detection approaches are combined in a weighted form to detect the cloning over the system. The work is presented as a weighted model with the exploration of all three stages under the algorithmic concept. The paper also discussed the problems and the relative solution provided by the presented model
