• Abstract: We propose and develop a framework for validating smart contracts derived from e-contracts. The goal is to ensure the generated smart contracts fulfil all the conditions outlined in their corresponding e-contracts. By confirming alignment between the smart contracts and their original agreements, this approach enhances trust and reliability in automated contract execution. The proposed framework will systematically compare and validate the terms and clauses of the e-contracts with the logic of the smart contracts. This validation confirms that the agreement is accurately translated into executable code. Automated verification identifies issues between the e-contracts and their smart contract counterparts. This proposed work will solve the problems of gap between legal language and code execution, this framework ensures seamless integration of smart contracts into the existing legal framework.

  We present the first large-scale empirical study on the presence and use of contracts in Android applications, written in Java or Kotlin. We analyzed 2,390 Android applications from the F-Droid repository and processed more than 51,749 KLOC. Our findings show that it would be desirable to have libraries that standardize contract specifications in Java and Kotlin.

  We study automatic Contract Clause Extraction (CCE) by modeling implicit relations in legal contracts. In this work, we first comprehensively analyze the complexity issues of contracts and distill out three implicit relations commonly found in contracts. We propose a novel framework ConReader to exploit the above three relations for better contract understanding and improving CCE.

We release the largest corpus to date consisting of 607 annotated contracts.
