Systems and methods of creative work collaborative systems

摘要

Systems, methods, and tangible computer-readable storage mediums for tracking collaboration are presented. More particularly, embodiments relate to providing, using a processor, an environment for collaboration between users; and tracking, using the processor, information regarding the collaboration; such that the tracked information includes rights information regarding rights of the collaborating users. Some further embodiments include storing, in a non-transient, computer-readable storage medium, the rights information. Some further embodiments include determining compensation for at least one user based on the rights information. Some further embodiments include: storing, in a non-transient, computer-readable storage medium, initial content; and storing, in the storage medium, additional content, such that the additional content builds on the initial content.

主权项

1. A system of tracking collaboration, comprising:
a processor configured for accessing an environment on a communication network for collaboration between a plurality of users on one or more collaborative works that are based on one or more source works; and a non-transient, computer-readable storage medium that is operatively coupled to the processor and stores information regarding a collaboration on at least one of the collaborative works; the processor further configured to:
receive input data including at least a portion of a source work, and store the input data into a master profile associated with the portion of the source work, the portion of the source work including initial content for use in at least one collaboration of two or more of the users to form at least one collaborative work, the master profile including a working profile for each collaborative work, where each collaborative work is stored in the master profile in association with the working profile for the collaborative work;receive input data associated with terms and conditions of an agreement that is associated with at least one of the working profiles, and store the input data associated with terms and conditions in association with the at least one working profile, wherein the agreement is by the two or more users for at least one collaborative work associated with the at least one working profile, wherein the terms or conditions relate to at least one aspect of the at least one collaborative work associated with the at least one working profile; andaccess, in the master profile, data associated with at least one collaborative work that is based on the portion of the source work inputted into the master profile, each collaborative work including additional content provided by at least one of the two or more users, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the agreement associated with the working profile for the at least one collaborative work.
