What should Chinese legislature body learn from those countries regarding this issue? Answering the first question lays a foundation for answering the second question. Usually, a cloud-computing intermediary’s specific activity may possess risk of violating a copyright holder’s right of reproduction, right of communication to the public and right of distribution. Comparatively, that intermediary can raise defenses under the exhaustion doctrine and the fair use doctrine. Analysis on these two topics consists of two parts. The first part examines copyright law in major countries or regional organizations such as the U.S., Japan or the European Union. The second part is an analysis of current related Chinese legislation and a proposal for China. This dissertation examines relevant international copyright treaties, major countries’ related legislature documents and related cases. This dissertation offers a thorough legal analysis how cloud-computing technology affects copyright worldwide. The proposal at the end consists of two parts. The first part provides four general legislature advices for China. The second part focuses on how China’s legislature should adjust copyright owner’s exclusive rights and intermediaries’ defense theories to react the impact brought by the cloud- computing technology. v TABLE OF CONTENT CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 1 CHAPTER 2: DEFINING CLOUD COMPUTING 7 CHAPTER 3: INTERMEDIARIES’ DIRECT LIABILITY OF COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENTS 13 I.

  • Testimony of Authors Guild President Scott Turow Before the Senate
    My name is Scott Turow. I’m the president of the Authors Guild, the largest society of published authors in the U.S., representing more than 8,500 book authors and freelance writers. Our members represent the broad sweep of American authorship, including literary and genre fiction, nonfiction, trade, academic, and children’s book authors, textbook authors, freelance journalists and poets.1 Guild members have won countless honors and all major literary awards, including the Nobel Prize for Literature.2 The Authors Guild promotes the professional interests of authors: we’re advocates for effective copyright protection, fair contracts, and free expression. It’s a pleasure and an honor to be here this morning. I’d like especially to thank this committee for recognizing the severity of the problem we all face and getting the ball rolling with COICA in the fall, which recognized this central and unavoidable truth: any serious attempt to address online piracy must address the third-party enablers of infringement. Anything that doesn’t address those enablers is, frankly, a pretend solution to a real problem. Our Copyright Policy Inadvertently Encourages Investments in Technologies and Services That Promote Trafficking in Stolen Books, Music, and Movies After 300 years as one of history's greatest public policy successes, copyright is coming undone. As we meet here this morning, our well-intended policy toward copyright online is 1 The Guild had its beginnings as the Authors League of America, which was founded in 1912 by a group of book authors (including Theodore Roosevelt, who served as the League’s founding vice president), short story writers, freelance journalists and a smattering of dramatists.

  • Banma Connecting China
    D2D Group Briefing 1 March 2019 BANMA CONNECTING CHINA Passion for People and Technology The announcement BMW Group and Daimler AG are combining to create a new global organisation providing urban mobility solutions, reflects an increasing importance, and urgency traditional OEMs are placing upon developing platforms to retain customers within their in-car connected service eco-systems.1 This pooling of talent, technology and investment is designed to counter competition and disruption from the tech sector, in the provision of localised connected solutions better reflecting end user lifestyle needs. Alibaba is one such organisation that via its partnership with SAIC, one of China’s most successful domestic OEMs, created Banma. Banma an infotainment platform, based upon the AliOS operating system, enables collaboration between developers and car manufacturers in research and development. Builing upon its initial activity with Roewe and MG cars, Banma plans to connect 6 million vehicles by 2023.2 Banma Network Technology The Banma infotainment platform is based upon Alibaba‘s AliOS, a forked but incompatible version of the open-source Android operating system. AliOS is designed for smart devices, such as televisions, smart phones, and most recently connected vehicles. The latest Banma system, version 2.0, was Source: Banma released in Dec 2017 and requires a minimum of 8 minutes for its over-the-air upgrades, with over 400k car owners having now upgraded.2 Banma’s user experience is based upon its map service, where map is designed to be the desktop of its operating system. Banma provides a number of features, most popular of which are Navigation, USB video play, WiFi share (vehicle to phone and vice versa, two-way connectivity), fleet management and real-time CarChat.

  • 亿欧智库 Copyright Reserved to EO Intelligence, October 2020 前言 前言
    万物互联时代的操作系统 研究报告 亿欧智库 https://www.iyiou.com/research Copyright reserved to EO Intelligence, October 2020 前言 前言 研究背景与目的 物联网因其宏大主题,以及巨大的应用想象空间而备受政府和企业的关注。国际电信联盟 (ITU) 对物联网的定义:“物联网主要解决物品到 物品 (Thing to Thing,T2T),人到物品(Human to Thing,H2T),人到人 (Human to Human,H2H) 之间的互联。”因此物联网也被视为是 继计算机、互联网之后的第三次技术革命。但由于物联网包含的软硬件技术太多,既牵涉到硬件端如传感器、通讯模组、异构芯片,也涉及 到软件层如操作系统和应用软件,行业发展遇到不少困境,行业整体呈波段式前进。 AIoT+云计算+5G的发展,使得万物互联正在逐渐成为现实,整个ICT产业可能有一次重塑的机会。数据的连接节点、传输速度、时延、处理 的规模和速度得到不断的提升,“万物互联”的AIoT将会在智能家居、智慧工厂、智慧城市等场景下均有较大表现。 亿欧智库一直关注于物联网产业的发展,自2018年发布《2018中国物联网应用研究报告》以来,后续又推出了深入探讨物联网技术发展及 应用的报告。《 2019年中国智慧城市发展研究报告》、《 2020中国车联网商业模式分析报告》、《 2020智能物流产业研究报告》、 《2020巨头企业物联网业务布局研究》等已发布报告从不同角度探讨物联网技术的发展。 我们也越来越关注底层技术在物联网产业发展中起到的推动力。操作系统作为重要底层软件技术之一,上承应用开发,下接海量的硬件终端, 正在吸引巨头提前布局。我们观察到国内外科技巨头都在操作系统层面有所布局,比如谷歌的Android Things和Fuchsia、阿里的AliOS和 AliOS Things、华为的LiteOS和鸿蒙OS、ARM的MbedOS等。 但市场中对于面向万物互联时代的操作系统还未有充分的讨论,我们希望借助这份报告来实现对物联网操作系统(IoT OS)的定义与梳理, 提供给物联网从业人士和其他对物联网产业感兴趣的人士一些有用见解。 EO Intelligence 2 前言 前言 主要研究发现 ⚫ 物联网终端海量碎片化的特征,很可能使得物联网的操作系统并不像PC或手机系统具有个别企业垄断市场的局面; 桌面端:Windows系列 88.23% + Mac系列 8.9% = 97.13% 海量碎片的物联网端:分业务、分场景、分生态 移动端:Android 74% + iOS 25%=99% ⚫ 云计算厂商和终端硬件设备厂商有充分的动力去推动自研物联网操作系统,“云+端”是物联网操作系统的主要竞争场;云计算厂商做 IoT OS的代表有阿里云、谷歌云、AWS、Azure等,硬件相关厂商做IoT OS的代表有华为、ARM、苹果等。技术积累和资源禀赋决定 了不同厂商的入局点不同。 ⚫ 当前阶段应用的物联网操作系统往往呈现出轻量级系统和通用级系统并存的情况,轻量级满足低计算资源(RAM及ROM资源最小以KB 计)场景,通用级适用于计算资源较好( RAM及ROM资源在MB以上,甚至达到GB)的物联网场景,是否会出现一种统一的IoT OS, 还是多套系统的配合实现功能,目前而言下定论还为时尚早。巨头尝试去打破操作系统这种异构状态,但前景不明朗。新老操作系统 的交替会持续相当一段时间。 ⚫ 嵌入式操作系统几乎每10年会发生一次重大模态进化,目前的时间节点下来比较,很类似于2005-2008年移动操作系统的爆发前夜,当 时无论是微软、惠普&Palm、诺基亚、谷歌、三星、黑莓,还是苹果公司都在积极探索面向下一代的便携式个人计算机新形态,并最

Eighth Street Stroudsburg, PA 18360 USA Tel: +1-570-476-8006 Fax: +1-570-476-0860 [email protected] ISBN 978-1-945626-02-9 ii Introduction Welcome to the ACL 2016 Student Research Workshop! Following the tradition of the previous years’ workshops, we have two tracks: research papers and thesis proposals. The research papers track is as a venue for Ph.D. students, masters students, and advanced undergraduates to describe completed work or work-in-progress along with preliminary results. The thesis proposal track is offered for advanced Ph.D. students who have decided on a thesis topic and are interested in feedback about their proposal and ideas about future directions for their work. We received in total 60 submissions: 14 thesis proposals and 46 research papers, more than twice as many as were submitted last year. Of these, we accepted 4 thesis proposals and 18 research papers, giving an acceptance rate of 36% overall. This year, all of the accepted papers will be presented as posters alongside the main conference short paper posters on the second day of the conference. Mentoring programs are a central part of the SRW. This year, students had the opportunity to participate in a pre-submission mentoring program prior to the submission deadline. The mentoring offers students a chance to receive comments from an experienced researcher in the field, in order to improve the quality of the writing and presentation before making their final submission.
