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 12s2 assign1
a plague directory will be created under ~/12s2.work/assign1
moss_run - send the submissions to moss for processing.
The class accounts have no internet quota, so this script must be run from a personal account with access to the submissions. - example:
% ~give/stable/bin/moss_run cs1911 12s2 assign1 c */*.c
% ~give/stable/bin/moss_run -d /home/cs1911/12s2.work/assign1/plague c */*.c
- the last two arguments specify the programming language (C code) and which files to process (all .c files for each student).
