Learn about code duplication detection in this technical conference presentation from Qt World Summit 2025, where Distinguished Software Engineer Rainer Koschke from Qt Group explores the scientific foundations of identifying and managing duplicated code in software development. Discover why code reuse through copying and pasting is prevalent in programming and understand the challenges it creates when maintaining redundant code across multiple locations. Examine the existing research and methodologies for detecting code duplication, including various detection techniques and their applications in real-world software projects. Gain insights into the impact of code duplication on software maintenance, as changes to copied code often require replication across all instances, and explore evidence-based approaches to identify and address these issues systematically.
