Plagiarism Detection
Currently the most widely used plagiarism detection software is serviced by Moss
~give/stable/bin/ contains a couple of scripts to make the process easier:
moss_setup - retrieve submissions and put them into directories suitable for moss-ing. Run this script from the class account.
- example:
% ~give/stable/bin/moss_setup 21T2 ass1
a plague directory will be created under ~/12s2.work/assign1
- Remove any files not to be included in moss plagiarism detection
moss_run - wrapper script for moss, sends submissions to moss for processing.
- example:
% ~give/stable/bin/moss_run en1811 21T2 ass1 python "*/*.c"
% ~give/stable/bin/moss_run -d /home/en1811/21T2.work/ass1/plague python "*/*.c"
- the last two arguments specify the programming language (C code) and which files to process (all .c files for each student).
- put template files under plague/Samples to ignore similarity from these files
