Abstract
After more than four years of research and assessment of a sociocybernetic system, the present paper makes the first coherent and concrete reporting. The purpose of the sociocybernetic system is to deter plagiarism in a society clogged with this scourge. The technical features of identification of the act are given, and further the sociocybernetic tool functions included in the sociocybernetic system are specified in the form of the Plagiarized Works Index. The functionality of the Index is placed on the detailed structure, organized on the presentation of records and databases. From the operation of the Index, information is collected so that one builds up statistics that are detailed interpreted. In conclusion, the way of action on historical plagiarisms is made so that they represent an exemplification in the training of the young students, but also a way in which the authors of the published plagiarized works are subject to public rebellion.
