1985] UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS 201 Chicago, inventor; developed with support from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. U P I reported that it does not elect to subject this invention to its servicing agreement with the University. U P I found that the nature of the invention would make it very difficult to license and would also afford only narrow patent protection. T h e University Patent Committee agrees with these findings and recommends that the University release its rights in this invention to the sponsor of the work leading to this invention, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. 7. Residual Stress Measurement by Interferometry — Steven Danyluk, associate professor, and A. T. Andonian, former assistant professor of experimental mechanics, Department of Civil Engineering, Mechanics, and Metallurgy, Chicago, inventors; developed with support from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. U P I reported that it does not elect to subject this invention to its servicing agreement with the University. T h e applications for this method are mainly researchoriented and of limited industrial potential. The University Patent Committee accepts these findings and recommends that the University release its rights in this invention to the sponsor of the work leading to this invention, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. 8. Eccentric Guide Bolt — Simon C. Roe, teaching associate, Department of Veterinary Clinical Medicine, Urbana, inventor. U P I reported that it does not elect to subject this invention to the terms of its servicing agreement with the University. U P I concludes that the potential market for the device is limited and that corresponding commercial interest would not support a patenting effort. T h e University Patent Committee accepts these findings and recommends that the University release its rights in this invention to the inventor, subject to the retention of shop rights in the invention by the University. 9. MOS ROM for Pipelined Microprocessors — David F. Paul, former research assistant, Coordinated Science Laboratory, and Edward S. Davidson, professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, research professor in the Coordinated Science Laboratory, and professor in the Office for Supercomputing Research and Development, Urbana, inventors; developed with support from the United States Navy. U P I reported that it does not elect to subject this invention to the terms of its servicing agreement with the University. T h e protectable aspects of the invention appear very limited, and the nature of the invention would make it very difficult to determine whether the invention was being infringed by third parties. The University Patent Committee accepts these findings and recommends that the University release its rights in this invention to the sponsor of the work leading to the invention, the United States Navy. On motion of Mr. Hahn, these recommendations were approved. Waiver of University License in Certain PLATO Materials (Exception to the General Rules) (16) The Computer-based Education Research Laboratory, Urbana-Champaign, has requested an exception to Article I I , Section 9(k) of the General Rules Concerning University Organization and Procedure so that a special class of subscription for Participating Institutions 1 to the University of Illinois P L A T O system can be created. 1 Participating Institution: Any external institution or organization leasing or purchasing at full cost terminals connected to the University of Illinois PLATO system.
