Abstract

Nowadays, with the rapid use of Internet, the student becomes easy to copy information with just click over the website. The opportunity to make a copy of someone else’s ideas or code without any citation of the original owner is known as plagiarism. Phenomena of plagiarism has become a serious issue among students where students are commit to copy information in class, whether it is plain text or source code. However, the plagiarism can be accidentally, especially for the source code. In a programming class, students study similar material of textbook and attended to the same class. Thus, it is hard to detect and determine the plagiarisms that occur among students. Therefore, plagiarism detection play an important roles in detecting any copy of information including source code. In this paper, the Programming Similarity Checking System has been proposed which is a source code plagiarism detection system in helping Information Technology’s (IT) lecturer for identifying plagiarism between student’s programming. Students are allowed to upload file online and lecturers are able to check the plagiarism results among students. As a result, plagiarism among student can be minimized by using proposed Programming Similarity Checking System.
