THE WASHINGTON TREATY (IPIC Sample Clauses

THE WASHINGTON TREATY (IPIC. 1989 Under the IPIC Treaty, each Contracting Party is obliged to secure, throughout its territory, intellectual property protection of layout designs (topographies) of integrated circuits, whether or not the integrated circuit concerned is incorporated in an article. Such obligation applies to layout designs that are original in the sense that they are the result of their creators’ own intellectual effort and are not commonplace among creators of layout designs and manufacturers of integrated circuits at the time of their creation. The Contracting Parties must, as a minimum, consider the following acts to be unlawful if performed without the authorization of the holder of the right: the reproduction of the layout design, and the importation, sale or other distribution for commercial purposes of the layout design or an integrated circuit in which the layout design is incorporated. However, certain acts may be freely performed for private purposes or for the sole purpose of evaluation, analysis, research or teaching. Mention should be made, in this connection, of the concept of reverse engineering. In the context of the integrated circuits industry, reverse engineering is the use of an existing layout design in order to improve upon it. It is considered desirable to permit reverse engineering even if it involves the copying of an existing layout design, provided that an improved layout design has thereby created an advance of technology which is in the general public interest. The Contracting Parties may make protection of layout designs dependent on their commercial exploitation or on the filing of an application for their registration.
