SOFTWARE PROTECTION
According to the title it is suggested that there is a legal matter dealing only with the protection of software. However, this is not correct. On the contrary the software protection has to be inte-grated in the existing legal system and legal problems with the existing legal norms, in particular those concerning patent law, copyright law and/or competition law have to be solved. Furthermore protection for a title of works can be claimed for a software program. Since the existing legal practice as well as software engineering is submitted to quick changes adequate legal remedies must always be chosen according to the concrete situation.
