NASA FAR Supplement. Part 1827 Patents, Data, and Copyrights.

NASA encourages the use of computer technology and is participating in Federal efforts to extend the use of information technology to more Government processes via the Internet. For example, NASA FAR Supplement clauses for patent rights and new technology encourage the contractor to use an electronic form and provide a hyperlink to the electronic New Technology Reporting Web (e-NTR) site http://invention.nasa.gov. This website has been set up to help NASA employees and parties under NASA funding agreements (i.e., contractors, grantees, cooperative agreement holders, and subcontractors) to report new technology information directly, via a secure Internet connection, to NASA. This information collected is required to ensure the proper disposition of rights to inventions made in the course of NASA-funded research contracts. The requirement is codified in 48 CFR Part 1827. The legislative authorities are 42 U.S.C. 2457 et seq., and 35 U.S.C. 200 et seq.
