Second International Workshop on Supporting Search and Sensemaking for Electronically Stored Information in Discovery Proceedings (DESI II) Wednesday June 25, 2008 University College London, U.K. http://www.cs.ucl.ac.uk/staff/S.Attfield/desi/ Call for Papers Legal applications of search technology have been of longstanding interest, and indexing techniques for legislation, regulations, and case law are highly developed. While work on those topics continues, interest in a new class of digital evidence management applications, often referred to as "E-Discovery," is increasing rapidly, in part because electronically stored information (ESI) has become a pervasive component of many routine commercial and government activities in many countries around the world. These applications raise important new challenges for the legal search community, including: - New types of materials, including informal language (e.g., in instant messaging), extreme content diversity (as is common in email), and other media (e.g., voicemail, photographs, video). - Unprecedented requirements for scalable work processes, with million-document collections today, and billion-document collections likely not too far in the future. - Management of a complex array of interlocking rights and privileges (e.g., personal privacy, attorney-client privilege, and executive privilege in government). No existing community possesses the expertise to attack these challenges alone, so our goal is to bring together researchers and practitioners with relevant expertise to help shape the research agenda to address these new challenges. In 2007, participants from five continents gathered together for the first DESI Workshop in California. Participation in the Second DESI Workshop is invited from all interested parties, including e-discovery firms, legal practitioners, and researchers in information retrieval, human language technology, digital forensics, natural language processing, text classification, archival science, information studies, legal sensemaking and human-computer interaction worldwide. We expect to invite an even balance between practitioners and researchers, and to achieve the best possible balance across national settings for the practitioners and across research communities for the researchers. Submissions: Two types of written contributions are invited: Original papers describing research or practice. Research papers should not exceed 10 pages in length, and shorter papers are welcomed (no minimum length is specified). Accepted papers will be included in the working notes of the workshop that will be distributed in print to participants and posted on the Web. Brief (typically 1-2 page) position papers describing individual interests, for inclusion (without review) in the working notes and on the web site. Brief descriptions of this type are particularly valuable when bringing together diverse research communities. Additionally, these papers can help with our selection of discussion leaders and panelists. Please submit original research papers and statements of position by email to s.attfield@cs.ucl.ac.uk To encourage delegates to contribute position papers (at least), registration is limited to those submitting papers until 10th May, after which registration will be open. Important Dates (all 2008): May 9 Deadline for paper submissions May 26 Notification of acceptance for research papers June 6 Deadline for camera ready version of accepted research papers June 25 Second DESI Workshop, London UK June 26-27 International Digital Evidence Conference, London UK Organising Commitee: Simon J.
