This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18328622 titled 'Digital Asset (DA) Move Option Between Personal and Shared DA Libraries
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a technique for managing digital assets (DAs) using personal and shared DA libraries.
- The method involves establishing a personal DA library with DAs and related records, including a master record for each DA.
- A separate shared DA library is also established.
- When a share instruction is received for a particular DA in the personal library, a first part of the DA record, including the master record, is transferred to the shared library.
- The second part of the DA record, which does not include the master record, is maintained in the personal library.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Digital asset management systems
- Collaborative platforms for sharing digital assets
- Content creation and distribution platforms
Problems solved by this technology:
- Efficient sharing of digital assets while maintaining control over personal records
- Simplified management of digital assets in personal and shared libraries
Benefits of this technology:
- Streamlined organization and access to digital assets
- Enhanced collaboration and sharing capabilities
- Improved control and privacy over personal digital asset records
Original Abstract Submitted
This disclosure relates to techniques for managing digital assets (DAs). An example method includes: establishing, by one or more server devices, a personal DA library having DAs and related DA records, each of the DA records including a set of fields including a master record of a respective DA; establishing, by the one or more server devices, a shared DA library separate from the personal DA library; receiving, by the one or more server devices, a share DA instruction related to a particular DA in the personal DA library; transferring a first part of the DA record for the particular DA from the personal DA library to the shared DA library, the first part including the master record; and, after completing said transferring, maintaining a second part of the DA record for the particular DA in the personal DA library, wherein the second part does not include the master record.
