Popis: Numerical and statistical methods are used to analyze and classify computer programs. Both computer source code and object files are examined. The results of the application of the Pearson and Spearman correlation methods to the source code are coupled with the random walk model applied to the binary code. One of the practical consequences of the analysis is the ability to quantify the degree of similarity between different computer programs and, hence, identify cases of plagiarism.
