challenges in Lynx
BDV-PPP Summit
Riga, 28 June 2019
5. PILOT CONTRACTS
Contract processing is costful in terms of time and money.
• How to process contracts in a fast and efficient manner?
• Which clauses are sensitive regarding changes in the
legislation?
• Are there decisions which have
impacts to my contracts?
• How to get an overview of
contracts in other languages?
6. PILOT 2: GEOTHERMAL INDUSTRY
Lack of globally agreed standards, guidelines or codes in the
geothermal domain. Regulatory sources can differ across
regions, be in different languages, and be less or more integrated
in regulatory regimes of adjacent domains.
• Given a new energy, which Technical Standards should I
comply with?
• … how to compare with
adjacent domains?
7. PILOT 3: LABOUR LAW
Heterogeneous labor law across Europe
Spanish company opens new factory in Germany.
• What are the equivalent norms there?
• Which kind of protections should
my workers use?
• Are there any other norms
(no equivalent) I have to take
care?

23. INTEROPERABILITY CHALLENGES
1. We have to make n-transformations if we have n-sources
Beyond the scope of this project, we can at least demonstrate feasibility
1. We need to define a common model for legislation, case law,
doctrine, standards, etc.
Requirement “piece of structured text with metadata and
annotations”
How come nobody else did this before?
