Drafting with Sequences

The numbers on the inner circle are those that exist in the modular arithmetic. If we continue beyond 7, as shown in the outer ring, the numbers wrap around the wheel. Numbers on the same spoke are equivalent. For example, 0 and 8 are equivalent, 1 and 9 are equivalent, 2 and 10 are equivalent, and so on. Another way to look at it is that when 9 is introduced into modular arithmetic with 8 shaf...

Drafting Indemnification Clauses

A typical indemnification clause requires the indemnitor to “indemnify and hold the indemnitee harmless.” It might also require the indemnitor to “defend” the indemnitee. While most legal authorities agree that the obligation to defend is different from the obligations to indemnify and hold harmless, many regard the promises to indemnify and hold harmless as synonymous, suggesting that either b...

Automated Legislative Drafting : Generating

In this paper, we describe which roles deep structures of law play in drafting legislation. Deep structures contain a formal description of the intended normative eeects of a new regulation. We will discuss mechanisms that can be used to generate diierent paraphrases of regulations automatically. Since it is possible to test the paraphrases on legal knowledge based systems, we have provided two...

Multilingual Drafting of Instructional Texts

This paper presents a new approach to computer assisted production of parallel instructions in multiple languages: multilingual generation. At the IT Research Institute at the University of Brighton, we are working on two major projects on multilingual generation of instructions, funded by the CEC and SERC/DTI and involving collaboration with groups of professional technical authors and transla...
