Don't forget that software metrics (Halstead's, McCabe's etc) can
be used to find programs worthy of checking for collusion.
A simple file compare an easily be masked extensive use of
globals replacement. The best trick is to assign the metric
calculation as a class problem and then use the ones that 
work on all the programs handed in!
