Abstract
Over the last decade, many clone detection tools have been proposed with good results. However, these tools are still unsatisfactory and either incomplete or inefficient. In particular, the recall and precision on the average remain unresolved. We introduce, CloneManager, a tool specifically proposed for the detection of functional Code Clones and to evaluate the precision and recall in C source code. It relies on the formulated metrics and those values are utilized during the detection process. Our tool is also compared with the two other existing techniques for the open source project Weltab.
