Multimedia Copyright Protection Platform Demonstrator

The work presented in this paper consists in the development of a portable platform to protect the copyright and distribution rights of digital contents, and empirically demonstrate the capacity of several marking and tracing algorithms. This platform is used to verify, at a practical level, the strength properties of digital watermarking and fingerprinting marks. Initially, two watermarking algorithms, one based on spread-spectrum techniques and the other based on QIM (Quantization Index Modulation), have been implemented. Moreover, we use these watermarking algorithms to embed a fingerprinting code, based on code concatenation, equipped with an efficient tracing algorithm. In this paper we focus on the implementation issues of the Javabased platform, that consists of three main packages that are fully described.
