Clone detection at Microsoft

Detecting clones at Microsoft seems to be a planned and well executed activity...

I was looking at the clone detection research recently and found a new development from Microsoft. It seems that the company puts a lot of effort to reduce the waste in their source code and work with refactoring. They report an impressive number of downloads if the tool and show why they use it. 

Unfortunately no real results of how much improvement was introduced thanks to the tool. Perhaps that will come later.
