  • This article chronicles key shifts in intellectual property regimes in the twentieth century as they related to the commercialization of academic research. The institutionalization and growth of scientific research in the research university in the twentieth century and the increasing awareness of its potential to promote technology innovation and economic growth posited an important question of the ownership of knowledge created in the academic setting, where knowledge was traditionally regarded as a common property among academic researchers. This paper shows the ownership of academic knowledge emerged as a key public policy and legal issue in the latter half of the twentieth century for academic researchers and government officials who pursue the commercialization of academic knowledge for private gain and public benefit. The resulting institutionalization of patent management in the research university and shifts in federal patent policy in turn opened a new legal avenue for the establishment of the private ownership of academic knowledge and the expansion of intellectual property rights in academia, especially in the area of biological and biomedical research. Reflecting upon historical shifts in intellectual property regimes in the twentieth century, this paper suggests recent controversies regarding ownership of biological knowledge and profit sharing in developing counties are linked to critical issues pertinent to the welfare of indigenous population, utilization of new natural resources, and sustainable development for humanity.

  • This study investigated the copyright problems in the course of distance teaming. The Copyright Act of Korea is built to protect the rights of authors and the rights neighboring on them and to promote fair use of works in order to contribute to the improvement and development of culture. However, for efficient use of library's materials for distance education, some articles in the Copyright Act of Korea is needed to be changed. We suggested the revision in the article 23 “Reproduction for the Purpose of School Education” and the article 28 “Reproduction in Libraries, etc”.

  • UCC is a key characteristic of so-called Web 2.0 which encourage the publishing of one's own content and commenting on other people's. Nowadays, UCC has become a widely used. Accordingly, problem of copyright become a issue. In this paper, we propose the DRM system for UCC rights protection. The system solve the copyright problem in UCC. Therefore, UCC creator can exert the right of UCC. In addition, if the problem of copyright occur, we can find the illegal user and call a him to account by CE information which is stored in UCC server and have a property that a manufacture of original contents can control the copyright.

  • In this study, the intellectual property rights of digital contents (creations) are protected by using block chain technology that cannot be damaged or forged. So, we build a blockchain-based content sales revenue tracking system and platform that activates the transaction and distribution of digital content (creation). We developed an API server that can be used for content registration and revision history management smart contract, license management smart contract according to content purchase, content inquiry function through files and hashes, and web and APP services. Through this, it is possible to prove the relationship between the rights of the creators of digital content creations and protect the rights of the creators.

  • This paper discusses to what extent the party autonomy can be allowed in intellectual property dispute resolution agreements in determination of governing law, international jurisdiction, and ADR agreement for arbitration, etc. in considering of the territoriality principle of IP. The party autonomy in choice of governing law and jurisdiction can be fully enjoyed in IP contract disputes. However, the freedom of choice is limited to the disputes regarding IF infringement disputes. The party autonomy is denied in the issues of determination of validity of patent or other IP rights. The author seeks the possibility to allow as much freedom in making choice of applicable law or jurisdiction, or entering into arbitration agreement.

  • 본 연구의 목적은 한국의 글로벌에 따른 유명상표와 지적재산권의 관계를 살펴보고, 위조상품을 상표권적 측면과 국제통상문제의 시각에서 조망한 후 이에 따른 대응 방안을 제시하고자 한다. 연구방법은 문헌조사와 전문가 인터뷰를 실시하였다. 문헌 조사는 국내외 각종 문헌과 정부 자료 및 관련 법제에 대해 수집, 분석하였으며, 전문가 인터뷰는 관련 업체, 관련 분야 전문가를 중심으로 진행되었다. 연구 결과 첫째, 우리 정부는 공정한 경쟁 조건과 공통의 규칙 아래서 세계 경쟁을 펼치기 위해서 관련법제를 지속적으로 정비하고 둘째, 위조상품 추방을 위해서 제도의 실효성을 확보할 수 있도록 효율적이고, 강력한 법 집행이 선행되어야 하며 셋째. 유명상표와 관련한 타인의 신용에 편승하거나 부적절한 표현 등을 사용해서 품질과 관련하여 소비자를 현혹함으로써 부당한 이득을 얻으려는 상표 질서 문란 행위자를 견제하여 부정경쟁을 예방, 억제하는 방향으로 상표법이 운영되어야 하며 넷째. 시장에서 위조상품의 폐해가 어떠한 결과를 가져오는지 업계 및 일반인들에게 깊이 인식시켜야 하는 것으로 나타났다

  • As the number of digital content service providers increases, a variety of digital rights management (DRM) systems appear without supporting interoperability. The lack of interoperability in DRM systems causes inconvenience to customers, especially when they want to play content through multiple devices manufactured by different vendors. In this letter, we propose a novel method to support interoperability between different DRM systems. The proposed technique aims to build an open framework structure which satisfies DRM vendors' requirements by enhancing the security of intellectual property management and the protection tools.

  • Recently there have been growing disputes between neighboring local governments over jurisdictional rights or property rights of ocean resources in Korean coastal waters. The reasons for the disputes come mainly from the increasing interests by local governments that begin to see the oceans as the source of resources and wealth. The maritime dispute is more complicated and sticky than the inland ones, and requires not only socio-economical but political approach, therefore sometimes demanding a plenty of time and endeavor. Also coastal states that have suffered from maritime boundary problems have different issues under the different environment and historical background. For Korea, as the maritime boundary issue has very recently soared to the surface, though it was latent for the period as long as 20 years, we have just taken steps toward an institutional approach on it, seemingly more to go to reach an agreeable resolutions to the disputes. This paper highlighted the issues surrounding the maritime boundary on the sea surrounding Korean peninsular after addressing the current situation of the boundary disputes. It will help explore and assess the possible solutions to the boundary conflicts over the lateral boundary between local governments.
