在接下来的内容中, the term "intellectual property" refers to inventions, 创作, 新流程, 创新, 有形研究材料, 等. -就是这样, 所有具有版权或专利的作品, and the patents and copyrights that reserve rights to them. The term "技术转让" refers to the commercialization of such intellectual property. The term "creator" signifies the individual(s) who invents, creates, authors, innovates, 等., with respect to intellectual properties.

在过去, at many institutions of higher education across the nation, intellectual properties that have been developed within the scope of the creator's employment and make extensive use of the institution's resources (e.g., 基金, time, 设施, 设备) have been owned by the institution, 而文学的所有权, artistic and scholarly works has rested with the creator (unless they are generated within the scope of the creator's employment, 由机构委托, or subject to a sponsoring agency's agreement as approved by the institution). 然而, 新技术, including those involving computer software and hardware, and significant new investments in state-of-the-art 设备 by many institutions of higher education, 包括澳门葡京博彩软件, have necessitated a reexamination of intellectual property and 技术转让 issues. This reexamination has led to a focus on the equitable determination of a property's ownership and the division of the rewards stemming from it, rather than simply on whether  the property is patentable or copyrightable. This determination will now be based upon the level of contribution(s) of the parties, with the understanding that this policy is not meant to reverse the traditional ownership by the creator of, 例如, 一首诗, 学术著作或绘画.

The governing principle is that the college has a claim to ownership of an intellectual property (which it might or might not choose to exercise) to the extent that the property is produced with substantial college resources beyond normal, or with substantial resources dedicated to the creator's use in the production of the property. "Normal" is taken to mean salary, office space, basic computer and clerical services. "Dedicated" resources are other 设施 or support provided by the college and used by the individual.

因此, the overall objective of this policy is to promote the creativity of the entire college community and to reflect the actual contributions of creator(s) and the institution in determining the rights of ownership and use, and the distribution of equity interests.

This policy applies to all full- and part-time faculty members, 行政官员, staff members and students engaged in 教学, 研究, study or other forms of activity within the college or in connection with any college program. Individuals who are not employees or students of the college will be required to assign patent rights to the college, or execute an agreement covering patent rights, 在被允许使用设施之前, 设备, 员工或学生时间, 或者通过学院申请助学金.

The development of a work of intellectual property, 包括计算机软件或硬件, 一个看似可申请专利的(或, if produced with substantial or dedicated resources, copyrightable) nature should be reported fully and 以书面形式 at the earliest time possible to the dean for academic development. The dean will consult promptly with the creator to determine issues of ownership, 专利及版权, 技术转让, and the distribution of potential proceeds, 考虑到房产的各个方面, including but not limited to the extent to which college resources have been used. It is anticipated that in most cases a swift and amicable agreement will be reached.

难道不能达成这样的协议吗, an ad-hoc committee of college personnel—comprising one individual selected by the dean for academic development, one individual selected by the creator and one individual agreed to by both parties—will be appointed. Committee members will have knowledge about the particular field and/or intellectual property issues and will have no personal or compensable interest in the matter at hand. It will be the function of the committee to review the circumstances attending the property, including the prior investment of college resources, and to make a recommendation to the provost/dean of the faculty for a final decision. The committee will have 访问 to legal counsel if the committee deems it necessary.

To assist in determining whether substantial college resources have gone into the work, the creator(s) may wish to maintain a diary noting actual date, time and usage of personal and institutional resources.

关于可专利性(或, 如上所述, 版权的)属性, 学院和创造者可以 discuss whether either party, 或者双方在一起, 是专利还是版权?, 并对房产进行营销. In such cases the party assuming start-up costs for the prosecution and commercialization of the invention will have first claim on any income generated by the invention to recover such costs. 在收回这些初始成本之后, any income shall be divided between the creator and the college in accordance with the agreement described in Section B.

另外, 学院和创造者可以, 经双方同意, agree to assign jointly their rights to the property to a third party, in which case the income received from the third party shall be divided between the creator and the college in accordance with the agreement described above.

At all of the decision-making points outlined above, decisions by both the creator and the college must be made in a prompt and timely manner and communicated completely, 以书面形式, 给另一方. If, 在这个过程中的任何时候, disagreements arise between the creator and the college, an ad hoc committee will be appointed as described in Section B to adjudicate the dispute.

In the event that a grant or contract from a government agency or private sponsor contains provisions for the disposition of the rights to the property, those provisions must prevail and the college must carry out its commitments under the terms of such grants and contracts.

Through its Provisional Intellectual Property and 技术转让政策, 澳门葡京博彩软件 has positioned itself to be a supportive partner to all those covered by the policy. 在类似的事情上, the college encourages individuals to err on the side of disclosure for the protection of both the college and the individual.
