Abstract

The development of information technology today has the easy exchange of information not only have a positive impact but also bring negative impacts that can not be avoided that one of them is an act of plagiarism.Writers interested in develop an application that can detect plagiarism in text documents. Application plagiarism detection is performed to determine the percentage rate cribbing a document with other documents . Thus, it can be seen if a person has committed plagiarism or not. To determine whether the document contains plagiarism or not, the author uses an  Smith-Watterman algorithm as a basic for counting. Smith-Waterman algorithm is an extension of string matching algorithm on text or rows as one of the dynamic program implementation. This algorithm will compare the overall length of 2 sequences were divided into sub-sections to get the highest similarity between two sequences. With the application of plagiarism scanner, compare two text documents can be done better than the manual process, documents stored comparison with relatively safe in a long time. The document that can be read or compared by application is about .txt, Microsoft office file(.dox, .docx), and pdf.
