Intellectual Property and
Copyrights
All the
deliverables may be reused/modified/upgraded by other students and/or the
instructor later on for educational purposes. The instructor will make sure
to give appropriate credits and acknowledgements to the
student in that case.
The instructor believes that the student has the intellectual property rights
of the system student developed. However, since it is done in a class at LTU,
it is also requested that the
student should give appropriate credits and acknowledgements to the University as
well as
the instructor, if the system is used or commercialized after the class.
