Abstract
Embodiments include methods, apparatus, and systems for discovering whether software files are associated with licenses. One method of software execution includes dividing software code into plural functions, transforming each function into plural tokens, and comparing the plural tokens with a set of tokens that corresponds with a known function subject to a software license.
