V4 Signals A New Path
October 10, 2003
Recently, at Miller, Canfield, Paddock and Stone, P.L.C., we identified a need to reduce the number of e-mails our team was exchanging with our clients to send versions of documents and felt that the solution should be in the form of a central repository for all of our information. After analyzing a Citrix solution and deciding we weren't willing to devote an entire server to third-party dial-in access plus the costs of the underlying software, we looked at iCONECT, which recently re-launched its flagship product, (previously known as simply as iCONECT), giving it the moniker "V4." Everyone involved in our in-house review really liked how we could store documents, transcripts, images, calendars and case information in one place.

Courtroom Technology: The Courthouse Spec's May Be Just A Click Away
October 07, 2003
In the past several years, new technology, including video evidence presentation systems, video conferencing and electronic transcription systems, have been installed in federal and state courts across the nation. Courtrooms today vary a great deal not only in size and layout, but especially with regard to the types of technology made available. All of these factors significantly affect the presentation strategy a lawyer will use during a trial. When brainstorming presentation strategy, courtroom presenters consider the most subtle factors including, the amount of ambient light, the distance and line of sight between counsel and trier of fact and the location of monitors and screens. Most lawyers agree that it is a great advantage to argue a case in a familiar setting; something as trivial as showing a witness where he or she will sit in the courtroom prior to trial can be important.

The New Wave of Concept Search Tools
October 05, 2003
Although the concept of concept searching has been around for at least 2,000 years in philosophical circles and was first realized in the software world in the 1970s, it is making big news in today's electronic discovery and automated litigation support world. Over the past year, a series of vendors have introduced software solutions they claim can take us far beyond the results we get using tools built around searching full text or coding data using key words, strings of text and Boolean search algorithms. Whether it is through mimicking the thought processes of high-level aquatic mammals, developing libraries of semantically and geographically related words and terms or displaying documents as masses of dots within sprays of bubbles, these software programs, we are told, are the automated litigation support equivalent to Big Blue, the computerized chess champion.
