of Legal Information Theory and Techniques of the CNR explores
the impact of information and telecommunications technologies
on law and law-related activity and it creates advanced applications
in the field of legal computing and computing law.

involved in the disciplines that pertain to the Institute's
areas of expertise.

are:
-
The study
and development of technologies for law and the public administration
-

The production
and distribution of law databases and of specialized computer
software.
In order to meet these objectives the Institute:
-
fosters collaborative
scholarly relationships with analogous international and European
Community bodies as well as with single countries also through
the exchange of experiences and personnel;
-
offers consultancy in
its sectors of expertise through conventions with public bodies
and reserch contracts and by providing technical-scholarly
services with respect to its institutional goals taking into

-
offers training for academic
and technical personnel in particular from the public administration,

legal information technology and for the acquiring of a doctorate
in the areas that its competencies span.
The result that the ITTIG feels able to pursue
with success is that of being a research institute of the highest
quality with a multi-disciplinary vocation that is able to adequately
meet the expanding demands of public institutions and civil
society in an area that is not covered by other academic institutions.
