Further IT contracting issues and selected existing legal obligations to preserve data are described with a particular emphasis on digital preservation.The clear exposition of the legal framework, and the detailed analysis of Legal Aspects of Digital Preservation will be of great utility to practitioner advising companies who are digitally preserving business processes, as well as those companies themselves, developers of preservation systems, and researchers in the field of digital archiving.Contents: Foreword 1.

Die Erzeugung, Verknüpfung und Auswertung von großen Datenmengen (oft als „Big Data“ bezeichnet) gewinnt in nahezu allen Lebensbereichen rasant an Bedeutung. Mit dieser Entwicklung sind Fragen von erheblicher gesellschaftlicher Relevanz verbunden. Die Diskussionen über eine neue Balance zwischen der Ausschöpfung von Innovationspotentialen einerseits und der Realisierung individueller und gesellschaftlicher Werte andererseits haben erst begonnen. Der Band nähert sich denen mit Big Data verbundenen gesellschaftlichen Herausforderungen aus einer multidisziplinären Perspektive.
