Digital Rights Management potentials and knowledge sharing in higher education
Darko Etinger, Aljoša Vitasović, Jusuf Šehanović · 2009
The failure of traditional DRM systems to answer the demands for an effective, user-friendly copyright management, combined with their lack of required computerised support and flexibility to scale to Internet-wide copyright management, led to the emergence of alternative licensing systems commonly used in higher education institutions. Interoperability being the key issue for DRM systems, the directions proposed are not excluding alternative licensing systems like Creative Commons for existing digital content but rather acceptance of latest achievments in forms of Open Digital Rights Language for learning objects in e-learning environment and Semantic Copyright Management for Web 2.0 knowledge sharing in higher education institutions.
