Citation: , Controlling Data in Networked Research, in: Jusletter IT 25 February 2016
Without considering other issues related with research (processing of personal data, security issues) this paper discusses intellectual property questions related to joint ownership of data and databases that are created as a result of research cooperation or re-utilization of previous research results in networked international research teams. In particular who is actually entitled to control such data and databases, claim provenance and reap profits from their use. We discuss these issues in three modes of networked international cooperation of researchers.
