Abstract:
In the production of digital artefacts, components, such as software libraries, datasets, data streams, and content items are typically provided and used under various policies, such as licenses, terms of trade, or disclaimers. Ensuring policy compliance is a mandatory requirement for legally secure commercialization. However, manual clearance of rights is time-consuming, costly, and error-prone, especially when multiple stakeholders and contractual dependencies are involved. In this position paper we present an architecture for a trusted exchange in a shared data ecosystem. This includes the modelling of transparent, interoperable, and customizable data sharing policies; methods for collection and monitoring of metadata against the respective policies; and the automated validation and compliance checking of the modelled policies in a secure and trusted environment.
