| Abstract. | E-commerce has become a huge business and a driving factor in the development of the Internet. Online shopping services are well established. Due to the evolution of 2G and 3G mobile networks, soon online shopping services are complemented by their wireless counterparts. Furthermore, in the recent years online delivery of digital media, such as MP3 audio or video or image is very popular and will become an increasingly important part of E-commerce. The advantage of internet is sharing the valuable digital data which lead to misuse of digital data. To resolve the problem of misuse of digital data on Internet we need to have strong Digital rights monitoring system. Digital Rights Management (DRM) is fairly young discipline, while some of its underlying technologies have been known from many years. The use of DRM for managing and protecting intellectual property rights is a comparatively new field. In this paper we propose a model for online digital image library copyright protection based on watermark tracking System.In our proposed model the tracking of watermarks on remote host nodes is done using active mobile agents. The multiagent system architecture is used in watermark tracking which supports the coordination of several component tasks across distributed and flexible networks of information sources. Whereas a centralized system is susceptible to system-wide failures and processing bottlenecks, multi-agent systems are more reliable, especially given the likelihood of individual component failures. |
