Abstract
We illustrate Stipula, a novel domain specific language that can assist lawyers in programming legal contracts through specific software patterns. The language is based on a small set of programming abstractions that have a precise correspondence with the distinctive elements of legal contracts. We overview the language by using a simple rental contract, we discuss a number of formal methods developed for Stipula, and we hint at its implementation, that can take advantage of (but is not limited to) a blockchain platform.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
