Cross, G. R. and deBessonet, C. G., Representation of Legal Knowledge for Conceptual Retrieval, Information Processing and Management, 21(1), 35-44, 1985. |
| Abstract:The law is a near perfect application area for knowledge representation. Legal knowledge representation is needed in conceptual legal information retrieval systems and in legal reasoning systems. We review the knowledge representation aspects of four such systems: Waterman and Peterson's Legal Decisionmaking System, Hafner's Legal Information Retrieval System, McCarty's TAXMAN, and the deBessonet representation of the Louisiana Civil Code (CCLIPS). |
