Since previously published intellectual property law and business research discusses institutional analyses without interdisciplinary insights by technical experts, and technical references tend to concern engineering solutions without considering the social impact of institutional protection of multimedia digital information, there is a growing demand for a resource that bridges the gap between multimedia intellectual property protection law and technology.

Intellectual Property Protection for Multimedia Information Technology provides scholars, management professionals, researchers, and lawyers in the field of multimedia information technology and its institutional practice with thorough coverage of the full range of issues surrounding multimedia intellectual property protection and its proper solutions from institutional, technical, and legal perspectives.

Multimedia Encryption Technology for Content Protection (pages 70-92)

Shiguo Lian

The principal concern of this chapter is to provide those in the multimedia or content protection community with an overview of multimedia content encryption technology. Multimedia (image, audio, or video) content encryption...

Chapter 4

Masking Models and Watermarking: A Discussion on Methods and Effectiveness (pages 93-116)

Mirko Luca Lobina, Luigi Atzori, Davide Mula

Many audio watermarking techniques presented in the last years make use of masking and psychological models derived from signal processing. Such a basic idea is winning because it guarantees a high level of robustness and bandwidth...

Chapter 5

Damageless Watermark Extraction Using Nonlinear Feature Extraction Scheme Trained on Frequency Domain (pages 117-142)

Kensuke Naoe, Yoshiyasu Takefuji

In this chapter, we propose a new information hiding and extracting method without embedding any information into the target content by using a nonlinear feature extraction scheme trained on frequency domain. The proposed method can...

Chapter 6

Perceptual Data Hiding in Still Images (pages 143-161)

Mauro Barni, Franco Bartolini, Alessia De Rosa

The idea of embedding some information within a digital media, in such a way that the inserted data are intrinsically part of the media itself, has aroused a considerable interest in different fields. One of the more examined issues...

Symbolic Computation for DS-CDMA Code Acquisition Using First Order Logic (pages 241-250)

Ruo Ando, Yoshiyasu Takefuji

Code division multiple access (CDMA) is widely used because of its effectiveness to send multiple signal and confidentiality of career signal. We present a formulation of state-space problem of which solution is directed by redundant...

Chapter 12

Device Driver-Based Computer in Broadband Age (pages 251-258)

Yoshiyasu Takefuji, Koichiro Shoji, Takashi Nozaki

In this chapter, we present a device-driver-based computer that realizes the reduction of mode (domain or vertical) switching overheads between user and kernel mode with innovative attributes, including shared keyboards and mice...
