-<p><b>Description of the project: </b>
-The copy-paste is a common programming practice. Most of the programmers start
-from a code snippet, which already exists in the system and modify it to match
-their needs. Easily, some of the code snippets end up being copied dozens of
-times. This manual process is error prone, which leads to a seamless
-introduction of new hard-to-find bugs. Also, copy-paste usually means worse
-maintainability, understandability and logical design.
-<a href="http://clang.llvm.org">Clang</a> and <a href="http://clang-analyzer.llvm.org/">
-clang's static analyzer</a> provide all the building blocks to build a generic
-C/C++ copy-paste detecting infrastructure. The infrastructure should be evolved
-alongside with useful features such as bug checkers and compiler diagnostics.
-</p>
-
-<p><b>Expected results: </b>
-  <ul>
-    <li>Add a copy-paste detecting infrastructure to LLVM. The infrastructure
-			should be developed in a feature-centric way.</li>
-    <li>Develop initial detection of slightly modified code - it should extend
-      the copy-paste infrastructure adding some semantic analysis.</li>
-    <li>Develop copy-paste oriented bug checkers - they should be added to
-      clang's static analyzer (see some examples below).</li>
-    <li>Develop thorough test suite.</li>
-    <li>Prepare a final poster of the work and be ready to present it.</li>

-<p><b>How to contact the mentor:</b> vvasilev at cern.ch or
-   vassil_vassilev at hotmail.com</p>
-
-<p><b>Desirable skills:</b>
-   Advanced C++, Basic knowledge of Clang/Clang Static Analyzer</p>
-
-<p><b>What the student will learn:</b> Static analyzer, Clang, etc</p>
-<p><b>Further information:</b>
-   The developed copy-paste infrastructure could be used to build for building
-more advanced bug checkers. Some examples and possible applications are:
-  <ol>
-    <li>Here is an example where we could implement warning that both branches are the same:
-      <pre>
-        if (cond)
-          do_a();
-        else
-          do_a();
-      </pre>
-      A more realistic example (provided by Nick Lewycky) could be:
-      <pre>
-        #define num_cpus() (1)
-        #define max_omp_threads() (1)
-        int test8(int expr) {
-          if (expr)
-            return num_cpus();
-          else
-           return max_omp_threads();
-        }
-      </pre>
-      The implementation should be extremely efficient and with low false
-      positive rate, in order to end up in clang's mainline. Initial work done
-      by Nick could be found 
-      <a href="https://gist.github.com/vgvassilev/471feedc9de61a9590da">here.</a>
-    </li>
-    <li>Here is another example (by Marshall Clow):<br />
-      Code block #1 is about 50 lines of code, with references to a global
-      variable (global1, global1, global1, global1, global1).
-      <br />
-      Code block #2 is an obviously duplicated and edited block of code, with
-      references to (global2, global2, global2, global1, global2).
-      <br />
-      A diagnostics "Are you sure you don't mean 'global2' here?" would be great.
-    </li>
-  </ol></p>

-<p> <b>Description of the project</b>: The idea of this project is to extend scan-build to make it more reliable for projects. Currently, scan-build results pages do not allow the tracking of a defect or the possibility to tag false positive defects.<br />
-Moreover, scan-build only shows the status of the project on specific time. An evolution of number of defects (per category or not) over time would be a great advantages for developers.</p>
-
-<p>
-The project will focus on:
-<ul>
-<li>Improve clang static-analyzer to provide a unique ID for each defect</li>
-<li>Create a database to keep track of the evolutions</li>
-<li>Make scan-build URL permanent</li>
-<li>Tagging of false positive</li>
-<li>Evolution of number of defects (per category or not)</li>
-</ul>
-</p>
-
-<p>During this GSoC, the student will have to keep in mind the tracking platform should not be tied to scan-build and should be usable by other clang analyzer clients (Xcode, Eclipse, etc) with different needs (different database, etc.).</p>
-
-<p>Note that the creation of a Unique Defect ID can be an hard problem.</p>
