Academic Agreement to use HYPERWORKS at the OSC              September 18, 2002

The OSC currently has a license for HyperWorks (hereinafter called SOFTWARE) 
that allows ONLY academic use.  Our agreement with Altair HyperWorks, Inc.,
requires that we make a good-faith effort to inform each individual granted 
academic access of the common understandings governing academic usage of 
SOFTWARE.  

This form is the means by which we make this effort and at the same time obtain 
the information we need to monitor access to SOFTWARE.  You should read the 
points below, complete the bottom of this form, and return it to the address 
mentioned below.  You will then be validated for academic use of SOFTWARE.

  The overriding idea is that you are granted academic access for the purpose 
  of conducting scholarly academic research.
    
    This means that you will not use academic access as a means of direct 
    personal monetary gain nor will you use academic access in such a way 
    as to cause direct monetary loss to any private business concern.

    You will not use academic access in connection with research funded by 
    a private business concern or an agency of a state or the federal 
    government with the exception of your OSC allocation and the NSF.

    If you publish the results of the research for which you seek academic 
    access, this publication will be made widely available and OSC and the
    use of SOFTWARE will be acknowledged.

    You will not attempt to copy or distrubute the source, object, or 
    executable versions of SOFTWARE.

  You also agree to make a good-faith effort to acquaint students under your 
  direction, coworkers, or others who make use of your OSC account to use 
  SOFTWARE of the content of this agreement.  Ideally each academic user
  should see and sign a copy of this form.
