IBM wishes to retain Dr. Wong on its payroll for 1972-73. The company is under a contractual obligation to furnish certain other corporations a nonexclusive royalty-free license on any invention made by an IBM employee. Any contractual obligation that IBM may have with respect to any invention that Dr. Wong may make while he is at the University will be satisfied if such invention is dedicated to the public. Therefore, IBM has proposed that the company and the University execute a contract expressing agreement on the following points: 1. Dr. Wong may remain an employee of IBM for the academic year 1972-73. 2. IBM will acknowledge that during the academic year 1972-73 Dr. Wong is to perform full-time services as a Visiting Associate Professor of Computer Science at the University of Illinois; and 3. Subject to any rights that the U.S. Government may have by reason of any agreement between the National Science Foundation and the University of Illinois, IBM and the University of Illinois will agree that any invention conceived by Dr. Wong while he is at the University of Illinois during 1972-73 will be dedicated to the public. The President of the University, upon the recommendation of the Head of the Department of Computer Science and the Chancellor of the Urbana-Champaign campus, recommends that the Comptroller and the Secretary of the Board of Trustees be authorized to execute a contract with IBM expressing agreement on the points listed above.

On motion of Mr. Howard, authority was given as recommended.
