I took part in the meeting of experts of search engines in Arabic digital content which were held from 13 to 15 December 2011 at the headquarters of the Arab Organization for Education, Culture and Science (ALECSO) in Tunis.
The meeting, which was attended by Arab and foreign experts, aims to develop Arabic, modern search engines, serving Arabic content on the web. It also aims to provide electronic services and translation services.
The meeting took part in the implementation of the decision of the Arab summit (Damas 2008) to entrust the Pan-Arab organization with the supervision of the execution of the “project to promote the Arabic language in the service of arabic societies”.
By the end of the meeting, I was selected to be part of the team who will develop the first arabic open source search engine.
