This Technology Watch Report (TWR2) provides information resources to enable heritage institutions to continue to develop their uses of information technologies ‘to provide access to the riches of European cultural heritage’ as recommended in DigiCULT’s 2002 report, Te c hnological Landscapes for Tomorrow’s Cultural Economy. The Technology Watch Reports are part of a suite of DigiCULT’s deliverables, which also include Thematic Issues, the DigiCULT.Info Newsletter and a participatory website (http://www.digicult.info).They are all designed to provide the cultural heritage with access to accurate, accessible information about current, near- and longer-term techno- logical developments. In addition to examining the technologies DigiCULT reviews the experiences of its institutions as they attempt to take advantage of newer technologies, whether they be methodological, technical, or exploitative.The DigiCULT technology assessments are designed to identify developments that could be deployed without further work, those that would require further development or repurposing, and those that are still in early stages of gestation but show promise.The Technology Watch Reports offer accessible descriptions of new technologies, suggest how these might be employed within different cultural domains, indicate the implications and risks (e.g. social, organisa- tional, financial) of adopting particular ones, and include case © Seamus Ross / HATII studies demonstrating how a technology has already been used even if on occasion only on a pilot basis.TWR2 examines tech- nologies that improve interoperability between sectors, standards that promote long term viability of resources, approaches that support personalise experiences of the heritage, and those that support access to shared spaces, and mechanisms that enable curators and users of the heritage to participate in enriched real and virtual environments. In the Introduction to TWR1 (2003) we provided an overview of the processes DigiCULT uses to select, evaluate, investigate, and present technologies. Te c hnological Landscapes for Tomorrow’s Cultural Economy (2002), recognised the cultural value and the financial potential bound up in heritage collections.While the Lund Principles, adopted by the EU Member States in 2001, stressed that access for the citizen should be free of charge, at the same time, institutions recognise 9 Introduction that commercial exploitation of cultural services is essential and the income-generating potential of heritage assets needs to maximised. The sector should aim to become the natural source of high-quality cultural content, the first place publishers, advertisers, and others turn.This can only happen if potential users can identify possible material easily, negotiate the rights to use it efficiently, and have it delivered to them in a timely manner. Heritage Institutions need access to digital rights management technologies (DRM) and digital asset management (DAM) systems to enable them to track, exploit, and repurpose their digital assets. In TWR1 we examined

In Deutschland war der Pilot 1000 allerdings nicht erhältlich. Die Abteilung "Palm Computing" wurde im Juni 1997 von 3Com übernommen und machte sich im März 2000 selbständig. 1996 (2. Quartal): Palm Pilot 5000 Der Pilot 5000 war der erste in Deutschland verkaufte Palm. Als Hersteller firmierte auch hier US Robotics mit der Palm Computing Abteilung. Im Unterschied zum Pilot 1000 brachte dieses Modell immerhin einen Speicher von 512 kB mit. 1997 (1.
