Abstract:
A computer method for configuring a plurality of servers and user computers for systematizing deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) scientific evidence data to provide substantial information of DNA to an expert witness at courtroom testimony, the method comprising:configuring servers to: host a plurality of databases, including production and archival databases; collect said DNA scientific evidence data; store said DNA scientific evidence data including the operations of collection, archiving, retrieving and presentation wherein the scientists can testify analysis facts, theories, principle, or method, and wherein laboratory techniques used to obtain final results, joint by common informational schema allowing preserving integrity and proof of said DNA scientific evidence data; produce metadata and said DNA scientific evidence data contents; classify types of the DNA scientific evidence data; identify and authenticate computer users and scientists; query DNA scientific evidence data from said production database; replicate said production database to said archival database; communicate with a plurality of said computers requesting said DNA scientific evidence data; retrieve said DNA scientific evidence data from said archival database to said production database; select said DNA scientific evidence data to archive archive said DNA scientific evidence data in a format of integral secure databases; trace, audit, collect, and examine repetitively said DNA scientific evidence data wherein the scientists can re-open aged DNA scientific evidence data for further investigation or future court testimony; allowing users on said user computers to: select said DNA scientific evidence data to archive; activate archiving execution; query said DNA scientific evidence data; compile contents of said DNA scientific evidence data according to scientists' design; relate or cross-reference said DNA scientific evidence data; search, sort, report, and analyze said DNA scientific evidence data including using the classified types of said DNA scientific evidence data; output said DNA scientific evidence data or select and generate the printed output of text, number and images from the content of from the content of Electronic Case Folder or the courtroom testimony; numerate said DNA scientific evidence data; retain intact said DNA scientific evidence data; and gain access to said aged DNA scientific evidence data online whereby scientists can examine, discover, and prove said DNA scientific evidence data, an expert witness can individualize said DNA scientific evidence data.
