Additional information

<09> The first paper that empirically studied whether duplicated code is more stable than non-duplicated code on a large scale. This paper (and the ones following it) have disproved the assumption that duplicated code will cause higher maintenance costs. The research lead to me winning the Hewlett Packard Fossology award. The results have been replicated and confirmed by at least five different leading groups and lead to even more ongoing followup research.
