Software license management is currently expanding from its traditional
desktop environment into the mobile application space, but software vendors are still
applying old licensing models to a platform where application rights will be specified,
managed and distributed in new and different ways. This paper presents an open-source
pervasive application rights management architecture (PARMA) for fixed network and
mobile applications that supports the specification of application rights in a rights
expression language (REL) based on ODRL. Our rights specification model uses aspectoriented
programming to generate modularized rights enforcement behaviour, which
reduces development time for rights models such as feature-based usage rights and
nagware. PARMA manages vendor and customer application rights over multiple
platforms using a web services architecture and a container model on the client-side. The
container model also supports the integration of services such as payment and
encourages the super distribution of the rights object with associated default (evaluation)
rights.
