Abstract :
We describe a number of applications of digital watermarking and we examine the common properties of robustness, tamper resistance, fidelity, computational cost and false positive rate. We observe that these properties vary greatly depending on the application. Consequently, we conclude that evaluation of a watermarking algorithm is difficult without first indicating the context in which it is to be applied
