Abstract: DNA scientific evidences include analysis fact, principles, theories, and underlying data. Courtroom admissibility of DNA scientific evidence requires courts to scrutinize their quality and suitability. Expert witnesses must collect, understand science, and apply to the facts of the case. To uniformly and comprehensively present DNA scientific evidence generated by paper-based casework has been time-consuming, erroneous, and personal chores because of vast paper volume; the degree of courtroom admissibility is arbitrary assessment among courtroom parties. The inventive method employs computer network to gather DNA scientific evidence and retain them using Electronic Case Folder (ECF), database categorizing DNA scientific evidence in defined sequence with page number and time stamp.

Abstract: Standard Operating Procedure (SOP)-driven Digital Network Architecture monitors, tracks laboratory routines and creates electronic records. The invention enables laboratory scientists to design, manage, control, and reproduce laboratory routines. The invention creates electronic system to identify where, who and when the quality deteriorates in laboratories. SOPs mean instructions of which texts for scientists and directives for computers. Methods include two mutual computer-aided processes—SOP management and laboratory routine. Both processes start with user authentication, security group, security access to SOPs and laboratory routine. Further SOP management that may not be subsequent is defining and refining contents of SOPs; version control, retirement and assignment of SOP to specimens.
