Track 1: Business Implementation 09 00 09 45 Digital Asset Management, XML, Rich Media, DRM and a Traditional Business Value: Profit Digital Asset Management, XML, Rich Media, DRM and a Traditional Business Value: Profit This session examines recent Digital Asset Management initiatives undertaken by Random House, a Bertelsmann Company, General Motors and a major global music supplier to integrate their traditional and emerging e-business units. The results show that by building a platform that can integrate what is often treated as two distinct businesses, efficiency and profits increase while risk and waste are dramatically reduced. 09 45 10 30 Managing Intellectual Property Resources Using the DOI System Managing Intellectual Property Resources Using the DOI System The DOI System supports management of distributed intellectual property resources on networks by maintaining state data and providing a resolution service. It is used to enable linking between millions of journal articles within the CrossRef application. This presentation provides an overview of the DOI System and demonstrations of its capabilities. 11 00 11 45 XML Web Services: A Business Perspective XML Web Services: A Business Perspective In this session, we will discuss the business and IT benefits of XML-based Web services. We will also explain the technology requirements for a Web services solution and provide examples of this dramatically different style of computing. 11 45 12 30 Connecting Trading Partners and Marketplaces with UDDI Connecting Trading Partners and Marketplaces with UDDI If you are looking for a specific product or service for which you don not know a supplier, you probably use the Yellow Pages. Hopefully, there are some entries providing you with a telephone number for businesses from the industry and located in the geographical area you are interested in. Through its global reach and wealth of information, the capabilities of the Internet are much broader. However, the Internet does not offer standardized Yellow Pages you can use to find businesses easily. The UDDI initiative with its broad industry support provides an answer to this problem. UDDI offers a standardized way for the description and discovery of businesses and their services. This is not limited only to contact information, but extended to so-called 'Green Pages' that provide information about web services a business offers. When extending the service descriptions with XML-based specifications, UDDI is also able to simplify the actual integration of business services using the Internet. 09 00 09 30 Trusted Documents Trusted Documents Trust is emerging as one of the central issues of all communications in the Internet age. How do we evaluate and find that which is trustworthy and discard that which is not? Trust in itself is a fuzzy concept (and therefore an extremely useful one), and the definitions in literature vary from the epigrammatic to the detailed and theoretically dense. The evolution of XML-based vocabularies for e-commerce raises the question of how the trust in these new documents will be ensured. There seems to be an interesting problem here: we trust data in the context of a document. But if we secure the document, the modularity - hailed as one of the great benefits of XML - seems to be lost! And securing the data, the individual tags, makes no sense. We only trust them in context. Either we have trusted and rigid documents, or flexible and non-trusted documents. Is this a necessary conclusion? One possible solution lies in the construction of not a technical protocol, but a legal protocol for handling the transferring of data from documents with conserved measure of trust. The notion of a legal protocol is developed and it is shown that it also would solve some of the as of yet unsolved problems of how to handle personal data in XML-based vocabularies. This work was carried out in cooperation with FRAMKOM and Stig Berild, in the K-project. 09 30 10 00 Automated Trust Mechanisms and the One World Market Automated Trust Mechanisms and the One World Market In this paper I will argue: That the factors influencing the choice of alternative methods of governance in transaction cost economic theory can be applied not only to the relationship of firms to markets, but also to the size and scope of markets themselves.That a zero transaction cost environment, would not only eliminate the rationale for firms as postulated by Coase, but also for the physical world models that sector today's markets.That transaction costs are primarily costs of trustThat trust is primarily an issue concerning the governance of systems That there is continuum of methodology from the design of computer systems and networks to the interactions of society which is of significance for the issue of trust 10 00 10 30 Question: The status/design of XML Signatures and Encryption Question: The status/design of XML Signatures and Encryption Mr. Reagle will present a brief overview of the design, features, and status of the IETF/W3C XML Signature and W3C Encryption Activities. 11 00 11 30 Trust Infrastructures Panel Discussion Trust Infrastructures Panel Discussion Cecilia Magnusson Sjöberg, Greg FitzPatrick, and Joseph Reagle participate in a panel discussion on Trust Infrastructures. 11 30 12 00 XML Metadata for Accessing Heterogeneous Legal Databases XML Metadata for Accessing Heterogeneous Legal Databases Legal information in Europe is scattered in numerous heterogeneous databases. The data in the databases is structured, organized and classified in various ways, the contents are written in different languages, and the retrieval techniques vary. Providing integrated access to the databases would serve both legal experts and laymen. Issues related to the Web access of European legal databases were studied in the EULEGIS project. Requirements for the integrated service were investigated and a prototype system was implemented. The implementation was based on the idea of rich metadata. An XML-based model for the metadata was developed and implemented. The model included data about legal processes, organizational actors in the processes, types of documents created in the processes, and databases providing access to the documents of the types. An important subset of the metadata was visualized in the user interface graphically. The paper describes the metadata model and how the metadata is used in the user interface. 12 00 12 30 The quest of standardising law. LegalXML and LeXML. The quest of standardising law. LegalXML and LeXML. Since 1998, LegalXML/Lexml have been working to develop new XML-based standards for law. The possibility to represent legal structures with XML creates new tools and communication-mechanisms and asks for a new relationship of legal and technical norms.
