The goal of this work was to analyse and describe legal relations between authors of videogames, providers, and users of GaaS in the context of Czech copyright and to present practical consequences of these relations, mainly in contrast to SaaS.

Este sistema tem vital importância para o novo paradigma de desenvolvimento, onde jogos deixam de ser tratados como produtos e passam a ser tratados como serviços, passando a respeitar o ciclo ARM, que consiste em três pontos: Aquisição, Retenção e Monetização. Para tanto foi utilizada Descoberta de Conhecimento em Texto (DCT) por meio de uma adaptação do CRISP-DM, juntamente com o processo de DCT. / SMART INFO is a knowledge discovery system that uses reviews made by mobile game users on virtual stores, such as Google Play and iTunes, with the goals of automatically detecting flaws, which might harm the game's lifespan, and obtaining suggestions made by users. This system is of vital importance for the new paradigm of development, where games stop being treated as products and start being treated as services, needing to respect the ARM cycle, which consists of three main aspects: Acquisition, Retention and Monetization. To achieve this, Knowledge Discovery in Text (KDT) was used through an adaptation of the CRISP-DM, together with the DCT process
