In this paper, we propose a new audio forensic marking system for protecting the copyright of the Internet-based music streaming services. In the proposed method, in order to guarantee the QoS of the streaming service, high speed, and generates a forensic mark inserted MP3 file. We make pre-marking process and generate a new forensic marked MP3 file, a combination of the pre-marked MP3 frame, the inserted user information. Experimental results show that the proposed method satisfactory results robustness and imperceptibility, and real-time properties. In addition, we were confirmed that the real-time embedding and detection from the streaming-based audio forensic marking system that has been implemented on the server/client is possible.

최근 법원이 인터넷 음악파일 공유사이트 '소리바다'의 복제금지 등에 대한 가처분신청을 받아들이면서 인터넷 정보공유 위축이라는 주장과 디지털 상에서도 지적재산권을 보호해야 한다는 의견이 팽팽하게 맞서고 있다. 이번 판결을 통해 지난해 2월 미국에서 내려진 냅스터 서비스 위법판결과 마찬가지로 '사이버 상에서도 저작권이 인정된다'는 유권해석이 가능해져 소리바다와 비슷한 서비스를 제공하는 업체들 뿐만 아니라 MP3 업체들까지 아연 긴장하고 있다. 소리바다의 서비스 중단이 가지는 의미는 과연 무엇일까.

As UCI (Universal Content Identifier) identification system becomes a national standard for content distribution, many digital contents are distributed through UCI identification system. However, problems associated with copyright infringement and copyright contracts occur due to lack of copyright information. ICN (Integrated Copyright Number), a code system developed for copyright management, includes copyright-related information for the purposes of usage settlement and accounting, illegal usage monitoring, and content filtering. ICN, however, has no information about distribution and content properties. Therefore, the linkage and integration between UCI and ICN can be a basis for the transparent and effective distribution of digital contents. In this paper, we propose a model for linking and integrating UCI and ICN, developing the efficiency in the value chain of each identified system by analyzing political factors and key technical elements between the two identification systems.

With the rapid development in network, graphic technology, and digital technology, content industry is emerging as an important industry for new cultural development and economic development. The development in digital content technology has remarkably expanded the generation and distribution of contents, thereby creating new value and extending into a large distribution market. However, the ease of distribution and duplication, which characterizes digital technology, has increased the circulation of illegal contents due to illegal copying, theft, and alteration. The damage caused by this illegal content is severe. Currently, a copyright protection system targeting online sites is available. By contrast, no system has been established for offline companies that sell offline genuine content, which compete with online companies. The demand for content of overseas tourists is increasing due to the Korean wave craze. Nevertheless, many offline content providers have lost competitiveness due to illegal content distribution with online companies. In this study, we analyzed the case and status of similar copyright certification systems in Korea and overseas through previous research and studied a system to certify the offline genuine contents business. In addition to the case analysis, we focused on interviews obtained through in-depth interviews with the copyright stakeholders. We also developed a certification framework by establishing the certification domain, certification direction, and incentive of the certification system for offline businesses with genuine content. Selected certification direction is ethical, open, inward, store, and rigid (post evaluation). This study aimed to increase awareness among consumers about the use of genuine content and establish a transparent trading order in a healthy content market.

In this paper, we design and implement watermarking system which create, insert and detect watermark comprised of number or logo to protect copyright and to prevent illegal plagiarism through inserting copyrighting information of owner into the original image. In the proposed system, the number or logo as watermark is selectively inserted according to characteristics of the original contents or requirement of copyrighter. The system also has convenient user interface which general administrator who hasn't expert knowledge for the protection of copyright uses easily. Ownership and copyright protection using digital watermarking technology intensifies creating volition of clients who want to create contents such as cultural contents, Thus, we can expect increasing requests for creating contents such as cultural contents.

In this paper, the digital watermarking algorithm is proposed using CDMA technique for protection of the mobile contents in the mobile environment. The digital watermarking was designed to robust the errors in the mobile environment where pathloss, multipath fading, interference, and noise exist. In case of the multimedia content service in the mobile environment, the construction method of the watermark, the algorithm of insertion and detection are also proposed. The watermark consists of the information of the mobile user. Invisibility and robustness required in watermarking are etimated. It is observed that PSNR of the mobile content inserted the watermark is 90.31 dB, and the signal processing and noise attack are also robust. Especially, because random noise occurs in wireless transmission can overcome, the proposed watermarking algorithm is adequate for protection of the multimedia contents in the mobile environment.

A watermarking for copyright protection of digital contents for broadcasting have to be made for a real-time system. In this paper, we propose a real-time video watermarking chip and system which is hardware based watermark embedding system of SD/HD video. Our chip is implemented by FPGA which is STRATIX device from ALTERA, and our system is implemented by GS1560A and GS1532 devices from GENNUM for HD/SD video signal processing. There was little visual artifact due to watermarking in subjective quality evaluation between the original video and the watermarked one. Embedded watermark was all extracted after a robustness test called natural video attacks such as A/D conversion and MPEG compression. Our implemented watermarking hardware system can be useful in movie production and broadcasting companies that requires real-time based copyright protection system.

The technique of developing Digital Contents have still not be a standard, and it is cause some problems in the Digital Contents's creating, circulation and consumption, So solve the problem, MPEG suggest MPEG-21 framework. In the standard, The IPMP take charge of the Digital Contents's protection and management, and also it is the same as the rights expression language REL and the dictionary defining the word of REL. But. the study of the IPMP is later than the study of REL and RDD, such as the other study of the MPEG-21 standard. So, there is few system based REL and RDD. In this paper, in order to management and protect contents right. So facing the latest standard, we designed and implementation the Tool Server and the License Server based on REL/RDD.

This paper presents a new contents-based digital still image protection method which includes a copyright message. Since the existing method using gradient values used a pixel based $3{\times}3$ Sobel operator, it was sensitive to attacks and could not extract exact copyright message. Therefore, in this paper, we present a algorithm which uses block based OCL(Orientation Certainty Level) instead of pixel. The experimental results show that the proposed scheme not only has good image quality, but also is robust to JPEG lossy compression, filtering, sharpening, blurring and noise. Moreover, the proposed algorithm has good performance more than 10% in rotation attacks than the existing method.

오늘날 폐쇄형 IPTV 서비스 환경에서는 일방적인 콘텐츠 제공자로부터 생성 및 생성된 콘텐츠를 소비자가 일방적으로 소비하는 형태이다. 그러나 기존 디지털 콘텐츠의 유통 및 소비과정에서 콘텐츠를 보호하기 위한 각 제공 업체의 솔루션이 독자적인 방식으로 개발되어 이들 간의 호환성 문제가 발생한다. 본 논문은 IP 네트워크를 통해 소비자가 개인 방송 콘텐츠 사업자와 같이 멀티미디어 콘텐츠를 생성, 편집하고 고유한 방식으로 스타일대로 콘텐츠를 메타데이타와 함께 패키지 콘텐츠로 재가공하여 소비할 수 있을 뿐 아니라 재가공된 패키지 콘텐츠를 공유 또는 재판매 할 수 있게 하는 개방형 IPTV 서비스 환경에서의 패키지 콘텐츠의 실시간 스트리밍 및 주문형 서비스의 차별적 제공 방안을 제안한다.
