7. Introduction & Problem Statement
Introduction
DALICC stands for Data Licenses Clearance Center. It is a research project carried out by the University
of Applied Sciences St. Pölten, the University of Economics Vienna and the University of Innsbruck in
cooperation with technology company Semantic Web Company and the law firm Höhne, In der Mauer &
Partner. The project‘s aim is to develop a software framework that significantly reduces the costs of
license clearance in the creation of derivative data works.
Problem Statement
• The reuse of data, software or content is often accompanied with legal uncertainty with respect to
intellectual property rights and privacy issues.
• Rights clearance is costly. It requires expert knowledge, is error prone and time-consuming.
• Easing the effort to clear rights increases productivity and stimulates the reuse of data.
