Abstract

A major issue in academic research is plagiarism. An academician's primary concentration is on research.  Students are more likely to duplicate assignments from each other and since it is easier for them to complete  their work. Copying decreases the time and effort needed to think and formulate the logic of programs, the  coding, and debugging processes. Plagiarism, on the other hand, significantly increases the workload of the  people who do the evaluation. Two-phase architecture is developed in this study that combines the advantages  and disadvantages of both categories to overcome their shortcomings when implemented separately. Approaches  are diverse. Plagiarism in several languages and plagiarism based on content. A new path, Plagiarism, the act of  passing off someone else's work or ideas as your own without giving credit where credit is due, is a major  problem in today's society. Plagiarism may manifest itself in a variety of ways and a wide range of fields. By  analyzing the reasons, origins, and forms of plagiarism, plagiarism may be described in numerous ways. Direct  copying of material from another source without mentioning the original author, substituting terms for  synonyms, paraphrasing, altering the voice of the statement, and so on are all examples of plagiarism in  writing.
