Study of digital license search for intellectual property rights of S/W source code

Abstract

The IPR(Intellectual Property Rights) system and technology for the extended software source code from digital contents are very significant to enhance international competitiveness. A problem happens if the original software source code is made public at dispute on its ownership. This study has suggested the Business model and comparison of S/W source code vs. Digital License to protect the copyright infringement and technique leakage caused by its opening. In this paper, we make a study of the digital licence prototype for discriminate the original source code. Reserved words of software source code by parsing express to XML file that have hierarchical structure. Then, we can express architecture of software source code by tree structure form instead of complex source code. And we make a study of the indexing and searching to search digital license. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2007.
