Maybe all homework could come in two parts with a 70/30 split in the grade. Everyone gets assigned the first 70%, if their solution trips a plagiarism detector then they are automatically assigned the second 30% of the work. Better yet, it's communicated that it intentionally randomly selects some people for the second part of the work, even if they didn't plagiarize. Like random airport screening.As long as it's clearly communicated in the syllabus, should be fine. If identical code submissions are so common then everyone should be doing the same quantity of work on average and it shouldn't be an issue if you automatically get assigned bonus problems.
