Abstract

The large diffusion of multimedia products distributed both through CD-ROMs (off-line) and through Internet (on-line) that it can be observed in the present years, is raising many concerns among the authors regarding the preservation of their rights. On the other side, such new publication means appear to be very attractive for increasing business opportunities. The problem of electronic management of copyright has thus become very important and many projects are being carried on all over the world to deal with this. The aim of this paper is to survey the main concepts which Electronic Copyright Management Systems should be based on. In particular the requirements, the players and the key technologies will be presented.
