Software, Hardware & Verification
gpichub.org
Develop and implement integrated processes, computational tools, software, and simulation environment for
energy-efficient building system design. The short and mid-term focus will be on retrofit design for buildings.
Develop scalable systems solutions for full spectrum retrofits and the enabling component technologies.
Robust control and diagnostics implementation platforms are then proposed for realizing the system solutions.

Intellectual Property Management
gpichub.org
• NDA signed by all Members allows open sharing of unprotected discoveries
and proprietary information ensuring GPIC access to latest technologies
• DOE class patent waiver (10 CFR part 784-Patent Waiver Regulation) provides
industry and university partners with equal ownership rights to discoveries
• Members’ exclusive rights to solely developed IP as well as their interest in
jointly developed IP are protected
• Members disclose discoveries to Penn State and in turn to DOE and Ben
Franklin Technology Partners (BFTP)
• Members choosing to protect and develop their discoveries may receive
commercialization assistance from BFTP
• Technologies not protected and developed by inventing Member may be
marketed by BFTP first to other Members and then to non-members
• GPIC Opportunity Research Fund and other technology commercialization
programs may be leveraged
