DR. WALID EL ABED
FOUNDING FATHER- 1995
Walid el Abed received his PhD in Linguistics and Computer Science from Franche-Comté University, Besancon,
France. His research was fundamentally oriented on the proposition of a new model called the Semantic
Meta Model (SMM). The SMM is the heart for a new system generation “NIXUS” (Natural Intelligence
eXpanded Universal System”. In the “NIXUS” universe, the static attribute-value” couple from Harris is
depolarized and the “Value” lifecycle becomes independent from the “Attribute” lifecycle. The occurrences of
a specific semantic network are dynamically obtained by the contextual polarization of its attributes and values
responding to the semantic rules of the desired state to be realized for that context. Dr el Abed’s thesis is still
considered as confidential and requires special access authorization.
However, the SMM and the polarization technique have led to numerous applications. The first application
was a data-processing kernel for the multilingual interrogation of databases in natural language. The SMM was also
proposed as a method and a technique for Information Filtering. It has also been used to define a pivot model
between the machine and the Semantics of Business Vocabulary and Business Rules (SBVR).
Finally, the SMM resulted in the creation of a new science and discipline :
The Data Excellence (elevate data to excellence).
