ZapNote: ContentGuard ZapNote: Protecting Digital Resources with XrML»rank: 6657082by: ZapThink, Ronald D. Schmelzer
: :A digital work is a discrete piece of content or resource such as an electronic document, audio file, video clip, component of application functionality, or other feed of information. As the notion of the digital work has evolved, so has the need to protect that work from improper usage, distribution, or disassembly. ContentGuard's belief is that DRM will evolve so that best of breed components will be developed by different parties in order to drive interoperability. This model breaks the current closed-loop mindset of DRM providers. In order for this approach to work, a single rights management language is needed, rather than a monolithic trust model. The goal of XrML is to ... |

ZapNote: Cysive ZapNote: Simplifying the Interaction with Web Services»rank: 6657082by: ZapThink, Ronald D. Schmelzer
: :With each step in the evolution of computing, we have reduced the complexity of connecting back-end systems in a cohesive manner. However, there has not been a commensurate improvement in the quality of our access to these applications through devices such as the web, PDAs, cell phones voice, and handhelds. Cymbio Interaction Server, by Cysive, aims to solve this problem by delivering a multi-channel interaction server that aims to present a universal "interaction tier" in which Web Services from any source can be consumed, and then appropriately delivered to the correct end destination, whether desktop, mobile device, voice server, or another back-end system. |

ZapNote: Document Sciences ZapNote: Enabling the XML-based Content Lifecycle»rank: 6593252by: ZapThink, Ronald D. Schmelzer
: :The process of creating content -- information meant for human consumption -- is typically effort-intensive. People must spend time organizing information prior to creation, constructing the content, and laying out the information so that it is easily read. With so much time, cost, and effort invested in content, it makes sense to reduce costs by reusing content as much as possible. The critical step to moving towards an architecture that supports content reuse is the creation of fine-grained content components that can then be combined to form coarse-grained documents in a service-oriented fashion.Adding value to the content creation, management, and publishing pieces of the content lifecycle, Document Sciences provides a comprehensive content ... |
