摘要：Finding code clones in the open source systems is important for efficient and safe reuse of existing open source software. In this paper, we propose a novel search model, open code clone search, to explore code clones in open source repositories on the Internet. Based on this search model, we have designed and implemented a prototype system named OpenCCFinder . This system takes a query code fragment as its input, and returns the code fragments containing the code clones with the query. It utilizes publicly available code search engines as external resources. Using OpenCCFinder , we have conducted several case studies for Java code. These case studies show the applicability of our system.
