This really isn't that new at all. I did some development on an autograding system at UCSD and incorporated a cheat detector using an age old system developed at Berkeley called MOSS. You simply tar up all your files and send them via mail to moss and they send email back to you with a link to an html page that gives percentages and all. Great system, uses program structure and logic to determine matches not commments and variable names. Give Berkeley the credit.
