Several members of the Lynx Consortium will be meeting during the last week of February (25th-1st of March) for a "coding sprint". The idea is to work side by side on the different work packages to give a boost to the development of the Legal Knowledge Graph and the corresponding infrastructure.
The gathering will take place in the facilities provided by UPM in Cercedilla (Madrid). The agenda is still being decided and will be published shortly.
The 2nd Workshop on Technologies for Regulatory Compliance was celebrated in Groningen, the Netherlands, within the 31st International Conference on Legal Knowledge and Information Systems.
The workshop took place on the 12th of December, while the conference was held during the two following days. Works presented both at the workshop and main track were of much interest for Lynx, and since several partners of Lynx consortium were attending, it was a perfect chance to discuss the applicability of such new insights and further steps on the project.
Lynx members Christian Sageder, Martin Kaltenböck, Elena Montiel and Víctor Rodríguez presented the progress of the Lynx progress in the BDVA community, held in Vienna between 12th and 14th in November.
The second Lynx Plenary Meeting has just been started. It is taking place in Vienna and will last two days (14-15th November).
Representatives of all the parties of Lynx consortium are gathered to discuss about next steps of the project: technical requirements, content specifications, first implementation approaches, etc. Also, new dissemination efforts have been made thanks to the presentation of Lynx at the Big Data Value Forum.
This week the XVI ECETT conference (Encuentros Complutenses en torno a la Traducción) took place in Madrid, simultaneously with the International Symposium on Parallel Corpora (PACOR).
