+   Software Grant and Corporate Contributor License Agreement ("Agreement")
+
+   Thank you for your interest in the gpu-monitoring-tools Project (the
+   "Project"). In order to clarify the intellectual property license
+   granted with Contributions from any person or entity, NVIDIA
+   Corporation (the “Copyright Holders") must have a Contributor License
+   Agreement (CLA) on file that has been signed by each Contributor,
+   indicating agreement to the license terms below. This license is
+   for your protection as a Contributor as well as the protection of the
+   Project and its users; it does not change your rights to use your own
+   Contributions for any other purpose.
+
+   This version of the Agreement allows an entity (the "Corporation") to
+   submit Contributions to the Project, to authorize Contributions
+   submitted by its designated employees to the Project, and to grant
+   copyright and patent licenses thereto to the Copyright Holders.
+
+   If you have not already done so, please complete and sign, then scan and
+   email a pdf file of this Agreement to [email protected].
+   Please read this document carefully before signing and keep a copy for
+   your records.

+   You accept and agree to the following terms and conditions for Your
+   present and future Contributions submitted to the Project. In
+   return, the Copyright Holders shall not use Your Contributions in a way
+   that is contrary to the public benefit or inconsistent with its nonprofit
+   status and bylaws in effect at the time of the Contribution. Except
+   for the license granted herein to the Copyright Holders and recipients of
+   software distributed by the Copyright Holders, You reserve all right, title,
+   and interest in and to Your Contributions.
+
+   1. Definitions.
+
+      "You" (or "Your") shall mean the copyright owner or legal entity
+      authorized by the copyright owner that is making this Agreement
+      with the Copyright Holders. For legal entities, the entity making a
+      Contribution and all other entities that control, are controlled by,
+      or are under common control with that entity are considered to be a
+      single Contributor. For the purposes of this definition, "control"
+      means (i) the power, direct or indirect, to cause the direction or
+      management of such entity, whether by contract or otherwise, or
+      (ii) ownership of fifty percent (50%) or more of the outstanding
+      shares, or (iii) beneficial ownership of such entity.
+
+      "Contribution" shall mean the code, documentation or other original
+      works of authorship expressly identified in Schedule B, as well as
+      any original work of authorship, including
+      any modifications or additions to an existing work, that is intentionally
+      submitted by You to the Copyright Holders for inclusion in, or
+      documentation of, any of the products owned or managed by the
+      Copyright Holders (the "Work"). For the purposes of this definition,
+      "submitted" means any form of electronic, verbal, or written
+      communication sent to the Copyright Holders or its representatives,
+      including but not limited to communication on electronic mailing
+      lists, source code control systems, and issue tracking systems
+      that are managed by, or on behalf of, the Copyright Holders for the
+      purpose of discussing and improving the Work, but excluding
+      communication that is conspicuously marked or otherwise designated
+      in writing by You as "Not a Contribution."
+
+   2. Grant of Copyright License. Subject to the terms and conditions
+      of this Agreement, You hereby grant to the Copyright Holders and to
+      recipients of software distributed by the Copyright Holders a
+      perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free,
+      irrevocable copyright license to reproduce, prepare derivative works
+      of, publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute
+      Your Contributions and such derivative works.
+
+   3. Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
+      this Agreement, You hereby grant to the Copyright Holders and to
+      recipients of software distributed by the Copyright Holders
+      a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free,
+      irrevocable (except as stated in this section) patent license
+      to make, have made, use, offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise
+      transfer the Work, where such license applies only to those
+      patent claims licensable by You that are necessarily infringed
+      by Your Contribution(s) alone or by combination of Your Contribution(s)
+      with the Work to which such Contribution(s) were submitted.
+      If any entity institutes patent litigation against You or any
+      other entity (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit)
+      alleging that your Contribution, or the Work to which you have
+      contributed, constitutes direct or contributory patent infringement,
+      then any patent licenses granted to that entity under this Agreement
+      for that Contribution or Work shall terminate as of the date such
+      litigation is filed.
+
+   4. You represent that You are legally entitled to grant the above
+      license. You represent further that each employee of the
+      Corporation designated on Schedule A below (or in a subsequent
+      written modification to that Schedule) is authorized to submit
+      Contributions on behalf of the Corporation.
+
+   5. You represent that each of Your Contributions is Your original
+      creation (see section 7 for submissions on behalf of others).
+
+   6. You are not expected to provide support for Your Contributions,
+      except to the extent You desire to provide support. You may provide
+      support for free, for a fee, or not at all. Unless required by
+      applicable law or agreed to in writing, You provide Your
+      Contributions on an "AS IS" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS
+      OF ANY KIND, either express or implied, including, without
+      limitation, any warranties or conditions of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT,
+      MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
+
+   7. Should You wish to submit work that is not Your original creation,
+      You may submit it to the Copyright Holders separately from any
+      Contribution, identifying the complete details of its source and
+      of any license or other restriction (including, but not limited
+      to, related patents, trademarks, and license agreements) of which
+      you are personally aware, and conspicuously marking the work as
+      "Submitted on behalf of a third-party: [named here]".
+
+   8. It is your responsibility to notify the Copyright Holders when any change
+      is required to the list of designated employees authorized to submit
+      Contributions on behalf of the Corporation, or to the Corporation's
+      Point of Contact with the Copyright Holders.
