We consider the problem of manipulating elections via cloning candidates. In our model, a manipulator can replace each candidate c by one or more clones, i.e., new candidates that...

The C-subfunction relations on the set of functions on a finite base set A defined by function classes C are examined. For certain clones C on A, it is determined whether the part...

Let A be a 2p-element set, p prime, and let be a fixed point-free permutation on A of order p. We study the interval of clones C on A such that C consists of functions that are s...

Many software systems contained cloned code, i.e., segments of code that are highly similar to each other, typically because one has been copied from the other, and then possibly m...

Previous research shows that most software systems contain significant amounts of duplicated, or cloned, code. Some clones are exact duplicates of each other, while others differ ...

A code clone represents a sequence of statements that are duplicated in multiple locations of a program. Clones often arise in source code as a result of multiple cut/paste operat...
