TREC Call for participation
23/08/06 01:18 Opgeslagen in: Conferences
NIST and The Sedona Conference® are seeking "a few
good lawyers" (as well as law clerks, legal
assistants, and staff of legal tech firms of all
types) to contribute to world-class research into the
evaluation of competing search methodologies, as
outlined in greater detail below. This is the first
year that NIST has targeted litigation demands
related to search and retrieval of documents as a new
field of research. For the TREC legal track to be a
success, between 25 and 50 responsible individuals
will be needed to participate in an overall document
review process which is to take place later this
summer. The results of the research effort will be
reported at the 15th Annual TREC conference to be
held at NIST headquarters in Gaithersburg, Maryland
during the third week of November 2006. The Sedona
Conference asks that you consider having one or more
individuals at your firm or company volunteer their
time to assist in this very important and research
endeavor. For further information see the TREC Call for Participation.
