Electroplated Micro-Labelling as Copy Protection

Flexible Micro Thermoelectric Generator based on Electroplated Bi2Te3

We present and discuss the fabrication process and the performance of a flexible micro thermoelectric generator with electroplated Bi2+xTe3-x thermocouples in a SU-8 mold. Demonstrator devices generate 278μWcm at ∆Tmeas=40K across the experimental set up. Based on model calculations, a temperature difference of ∆TG=21.4K across the generator is assumed. Due to the flexible design and the chosen...

KOPI Protection instead of Copy Protection

This paper describes how a document can be protected against plagiarism without the need to use heavy copy protection systems, as despite they are hard to break, they make the lives of legitimate users very difficult.

Privacy - DRM : Data Protection by Copy Protection ?

Protecting media contents and enforcing privacy policies seem to be related problems: mechanisms are needed to restrict data processing outside the copyright holder’s, respectively data subject’s, domain of control. A systematic analysis of requirements, properties, and experiences with digital rights management (DRM) reveals substantial differences between Content-DRM to protect media contents...

Copy Protection Technology is Doomed

48 Computer Copy Protection Technology Is Doomed A t some fundamental level, seemingly as axiomatic as the speed of light or the conservation of energy, copying information— strings of bits—will always be easy. Historically, systems intended to restrict this fundamental property have always been defeated, and there is no reason they won't continue to be defeated. Copying has always been easy, w...
