Title: Les valeurs linguistiques et culturelles des documents num{é}riques et leur traitement s{é}mantique dans les syst{è}mes d'information {é}lectroniques

Abstract: The digital document evolves rapidly and spectacularly in its structure and information content conveyed on networks and information systems. Generally understood as a neutral support for information carrying a semantic value, the digital document nevertheless carries parameters that denote certain cultural and linguistic values specific to its creator. This document attempts to emphasize some technical aspects that reflect this intrinsic identity of electronic documents. The objective is to define a set of parameters and recommendations capable of preserving the digital document a cultural and linguistic identity which will identify it to its potential users in open and distributed information systems. Ultimately, it aims to offer "good practice" recommendations for producers of fully or partially Arabic digital documents.
