e- Court
The aim of this research project is to create an integrated multimedia system specifically for European law courts, in the context of cooperation in penal matters, as per clause 31 of the Amsterdam Treaty. The main purposes of such a system are to automatically acquire multimedia depositions and store them in digital form and to develop a multilingual information retrieval system for accessing trial data.
The project is co-funded by the European Commission Directorate for the Information Society within the context of the 5th Framework programme.
