Universal Content Management Framework for Media Rights
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The media industry faces challenges in managing digital media content effectively due to the lack of focus on the value of digitized assets, with existing systems often being application-specific and not reusable, and requiring significant rework to adapt to new developments, while also lacking comprehensive solutions for rights management and business transactions.
Innovation Solution
A next-generation content management system that provides a generic, open platform for media content management, leveraging an H-Class enterprise workflow methodology and standards to ensure interoperability, supporting diverse business models, and integrating security and auditing features, allowing for the reuse of software components and enabling efficient rights management and business transaction handling.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If application-specific frameworks are used, then the system can be tailored to specific needs, but the framework cannot be reused without significant rework
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a universal content management framework that can serve multiple applications and industries. The framework includes reusable components such as the content repository, metadata management system, rights management module, and workflow engine that can be deployed across different media types (audio, video, images) and business scenarios without requiring significant rework, thereby achieving both adaptability and reusability
2Quantity of substance
If digitized assets are stored and managed, then content proliferation is enabled, but the value of content especially fiscal is not focused on
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces an intermediary rights management layer that sits between the content repository and the delivery mechanisms. This intermediary system tracks fiscal value through metadata associated with each content asset, including ownership information, licensing terms, usage rights, and billing parameters. The rights management module automatically enforces these fiscal constraints during content delivery, ensuring that value tracking is maintained alongside content proliferation
3Adaptability or versatility
If multi-channel multi-media delivery is implemented, then content distribution is enhanced, but rights management and business transactions lack comprehensive solutions
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the content delivery system into distinct functional modules: content repository, metadata management, rights management, workflow engine, and multiple delivery channels. Each module handles specific aspects of content management independently. The rights management module maintains authoritative control over usage permissions and automatically validates rights during delivery across any channel, ensuring reliability is maintained even as versatility increases

AI summary
Embodiments of systems, program products, and methods to enhance and more effectively manage media content are provided. An embodiment of a system, for example, can include a first preselected network framework defining a first network stage and a second preselected network framework responsive to the first network stage and defining a second network stage. The system can also include a code generator responsive to the second network stage to generate program code, a framework stage responsive to the code generator to establish a content management framework and defining a content search engine, a media content services core responsive to the content search engine to enhance digital file management and allow a plurality of media content management services to be performed, and a set of media content service modules each responsive to the media content services core to perform content management services to media.
