  1. When software engineering researchers discuss "similar" code, we often mean code determined by static analysis to be textually, syntactically or structurally similar, known as code clones (looks alike). Ideally, we would like to also include code that is behaviorally or functionally similar, even if it looks completely different. The state of the art in detecting these behavioral clones focuses on checking the functional equivalence of the inputs and outputs of code fragments, regardless of its internal behavior (focusing only on input and output states). We argue that with an advance in dynamic code clone detection towards detecting behavioral clones (i.e., those with similar execution behavior), we can greatly increase the applications of behavioral clones as a whole for general program understanding tasks.
