Dealing with Open Source Software (OSS) poses an entirely new set of challenges to a
company's intellectual property management processes. Legal departments and corporate
counsels are seeking answers to these and other questions:
- What are the legal challenges when using OSS in embedded systems?
- What are the main characteristics of proprietary and OSS licenses?
- Are OSS licenses legally enforceable?
- How can an enterprise manage the legal risks?
- What are the rights and obligations associated with OSS licenses such as GPLv2?
In her keynote presentation Dr. Caldarola will offer answers to those questions and provide
insight how enterprises can successfully build embedded products with OSS while managing
compliance with its legal requirements.
