Free-Libre Open Source Software as a Public Policy Choice external link

Margoni, T.
International Journal on Advances in Internet Technology, num: 4, pp: 212-222, 2012

Abstract

Free Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS) is characterised by a specific programming and development paradigm. The availability and freedom of use of source code are at the core of this paradigm, and are the prerequisites for FLOSS features. Unfortunately, the fundamental role of code is often ignored among those who decide the software purchases for Canadian public agencies. Source code availability and the connected freedoms are often seen as unrelated and accidental aspects, and the only real advantage acknowledged, which is the absence of royalty fees, becomes paramount. In this paper we discuss some relevant legal issues and explain why public administrations should choose FLOSS for their technological infrastructure. We also present the results of a survey regarding the penetration and awareness of FLOSS usage into the Government of Canada. The data demonstrates that the Government of Canada shows no enforced policy regarding the implementation of a specific technological framework (which has legal, economic, business, and ethical repercussions) in their departments and agencies.

Margoni, T.
pp: 18-21, 2012

Abstract

Sophisticated network management is now very common. However, the legal consequences in terms of the liabilities, whether civil or criminal, of the Service Provider in connection with the type of management used have been poorly explored. In this work in progress, we identify the research questions, the methodology and work hypotheses of our future research.

Clarifying privacy in the Clouds external link

Margoni, T.
pp: 12-17., 2012

Abstract

Concomitant with the increased market appeal of cloud-based services, there is growing concern over issues of privacy within the architecture. In this paper, we analyze what is meant by the term privacy from a legal perspective, and how the meaning of cloud computing and their operation may be affected in at least one jurisdiction. We also look at some possible solutions to addressing privacy in clouds.

From music tracks to Google maps: Who owns computer-generated works? external link

Margoni, T.
Computer Law & Security Review, num: 6, pp: 621-629, 2012

Abstract

Increasingly the digital content used in everyday life has little or no human intervention in its creation. Typically, when such content is delivered to consumers it comes with attached claims of copyright. However, depending on the jurisdiction, approaches to ownership of computer-generated works vary from legislated to uncertain. In this paper we look at the various approaches taken by the common law, such as in Canada, and the legislative approach taken in the United Kingdom. The options for how computer-generated works may be treated and suggestions for their best placement in copyright are discussed.

Scientific and Critical Editions of Public Domain Works: An Example of European Copyright Law (Dis)Harmonization external link

Margoni, T.
Canadian Intellectual Property Review, num: 1, pp: 157-170., 2012

Abstract

Despite the lack of unanimity among European nations on how to treat so-called scientific and critical editions, most of these nations agree on the major proposition that this kind of work should attract some kind of protection under neighbouring rights doctrines in their copyright codes. Canada has no such provisions. This article explores the neighbouring rights protection in some European nations and shows that Canadian publishers of such editions should be aware of the diverse range of protection that they are given in Europe and the potential liability of Canadian publishers.

Ownership in Complex Authorship: A Comparative Study of Joint Works external link

Margoni, T.
num: 1, pp: 22-32., 2012

Abstract

Copyright legislation, at least in its implementation, can be seen as a triumph of international harmonisation. However, in the area of joint works this is not the case. In the comparison of a North American and a European country this article observes very different outcomes, despite the similar statutory definitions in copyright legislation. However, the explanation for the divergence of application is not to be found in copyright law, but rather the parts of property law that deal with tenancy in common. Starting from this observation, the article uses comparative analysis of rules and remedies available in both systems and concludes with recommendations towards a more fair and efficient framework.

‘Goede zeden en openbare orde in het intellectuele eigendomsrecht’ external link

Mom, G.J.H.M.
IER, num: 3, pp: 93-102, 1998

Abstract

In dit artikel wordt de vraag aan de orde gesteld of en zo ja, in hoeverre strijdigheid met de goede zeden en/of de openbare orde van invloed is op bepaalde intellectuele eigendomsrechten. Zou bedoelde strijdigheid aanleiding kunnen zijn werken van letterkunde of kunst buiten de bescherming van het auteursrecht te plaatsen? En hoe is de situatie met betrekking tot `onzedelijke' of met de openbare orde strijdige uitvindingen, merken en modellen? Valt daaraan i.e.-bescherming te onthouden?
