Hi Mike, The current 1.1 release of FOSSology uses the bsam algorithm described here: http://fossology.org/symbolic_alignment_matrix.
The next version, 1.2, will include an additional license analysis method called nomos, which is primarily a pattern matching algorithm with MANY rules. And finally, there is a new algorithm under development for version 1.3 which we believe will be faster and more accurate than either of the previous 2 methods. It is discussed here http://fossology.org/f1. HTH, Mary Hi fossologists, Is there a high-level description of the algorithm used to compare the set of licenses with the files in an upload? - Or better, a high-level description of the algorithm you want it to be, i.e. what you currently regard as the best solution? I've skimmed the develop docs without coming across this? Cheers, Mike -- Mike Kinghan, Test Lead, Symbian +44(0)776 5222 793
