Office of Research Innovation and Commercialization held workshop on “Measure of Software Similarity” 

Islamabad, August 24, 2022 (PPI-OT):MOSS (Measure of Software Similarity) is an automatic system for determining the similarity of programs. The main application of MOSS is detection of plagiarism in programming classes. The algorithm behind MOSS is a significant improvement over other cheating detection algorithm. In response to a query, the Moss server produces HTML pages listing pairs of programs with similar code. MOSS also highlights individual passages in programs that appear the same, making it easy to quickly compare the files.
