| Abstract | Authorship attribution is used to determine the creator of works among many candidates, playing a vital role in software forensics, authorship disputes and academic integrity investigations. The evolving coding style of individuals may degrade the performance of systems that attribute authorship of source code, and has not been previously studied. This paper uses a collection of six programming assignments with guaranteed relative timestamps from 272 students to examine evolution of coding style.We find that the problem domain of the software developed has a large affect on the ability to attribute authorship, and that coding style does change over time regardless of the requirements that are coded.The outcomes suggest that it takes at least three programming tasks for coding style to settle, and that at least one piece of code in the same problem domain as the code to classify is necessary for accurate authorship attribution.In the final part of the paper we analyze low level code features to discover simple features that appear immune to evolution of coding style, and use them to improve effectiveness of our system from 79% to82% (p≪0.01, z-test). |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
