Computational Law

This is a Git repository of the Research Programme in Computational Law, hosted at the Centre for Computational Law at Singapore Management University.

We aim to build open-source tools and technologies that do for legal and qualitative reasoning, what the spreadsheet has done for quantitative reasoning.

Computational law has a long history. An introductory curriculum is available under doc/.

Areas of work

We maintain separate repositories for each work area below. Developers should clone them under smucclaw/

  • DSL: a family of domain-specific languages suitable for expressing the semantics of contracts, laws, and rules.
  • NLG: natural language generation allows us to "compile" from the DSL to English and other natural languages.
  • FV: formal verification of the specifications written in the DSL helps detect conflicts and loopholes at "compile time".
  • IDE: support for DSL developers in their favourite editor offers realtime feedback, document preview, and app preview.
  • DMN: integration with the Decision Model & Notation standard for expressing constitutive rules efficiently in Markdown.

We're Hiring!

Assistant Research Engineers, Trainees, and Research Engineers interested in working with us in Singapore are invited to submit an application through official channels. See job description.

We're Open to Use Cases!

Practitioners from industry and government sectors are invited to contact us to explore opportunities for collaboration.

Please initiate contact through a Github issue that describes in broad strokes what you would like to achieve with our help.

We're Open Source!

The CCLAW community gathers at:

Slack : (TODO: set up an invite mechanism)

reddit : (TODO: set up a subreddit)

Or rather, it will, once we're more set up.

Code of Conduct

All participants are expected to abide by the code of conduct available here.

Onboarding for Trainees and Junior Engineers
