DETECTING UNACKNOWLEDGED PLAGIARISM USING STRING MATCHING BASED CONTENT FRAMEWORK

Abstract

Plagiarismisanugly trend that posed global concerns and challenges to information resources and
documents spanning the internet repository and academia. Most often, an individual or some authors
in teamwork usually have parallel construction in written text, term paper, and research article which
connotes similar phrases, vocabulary overlap, and collaboration between texts across multiple pages
of the same document. In this paper, we present a functional mechanism for higher performance in
plagiarism detection especially in a collaborative manner. An iterative development technique was
adopted involving 'String Matching Based Content' to handle text parsing and document analysis
from file to file. The system functionality was modelled from the users' perspective by providing an
algorithm for internal control and to check text similarity.
