LegalRuleML

Chair:
Monica Palmirani, University of Bologna, Italy

The LegalRuleML aims to produce a rule interchange language for the legal domain. This will enable modelling and reasoning such that implementers can structure, evaluate, and compare legal arguments constructed using the rule representation tools provided.
The LegalRuleML work will provide means for modelling norms, regulation, policy, guidelines, judgements, and contracts using a semantic approach. In particular, the LegalRuleML work will extend the existing RuleML, RIF and related Web rule work by improved modelling as well as representing and capturing the legal knowledge embedded in legal texts.
