    Book of Abstracts th The 14 ​ International Symposium on ​ Comparative Literature “Writing Across Borders” th th (13 ​ -15 ​ November 2018) ​ ​ Book of Abstracts 1 Abstracts of Keynote Speakers 2 “Why does Writing Cross Borders?” Ibrahim Abdel Maguid (Keynote Speaker - Day 1) Man's dreams and hopes as well as experiences of pain and agony have always been a resource for creative writing par excellence. Taking shape in time and space, they all ​ ​ contribute to make writing the epitome of human existence. The question of writing crossing local borders and reaching for a wider audience worldwide has never been an act of straightforwardly communicating a moment in time as witnessed by the writer; this can be better documented by a historian. Only when the writer's characters become the voice of humanity at large, can they cross social, geographical and historical borders. A literary work is nonetheless a commodity in need of effective marketing strategies/mechanisms to reach beyond borders and convey a message from some part of the world probably known through media stereotypes. Far removed from the human and literary aspects of writing as it may sound, this fact pertains to our part of the world despite the proliferating translations of Arabic literature into world languages. Even worse is the fact that inter- Arab borders may prove difficult for Arab writers to cross partly under some immature political pretext or for feigned ethical sensitivities in the age of internet where borders have been dissolved. Writing is truly an individual talent's conceptualization of human experience but for it to cross borders more issues should be attended to.

  • Studying Emergent Computation Using New General Model of Cellular Automata
    International Journal of Engineering Sciences & Emerging Technologies, October 2013. ISSN: 22316604 Volume 6, Issue 2, pp: 133-141 ©IJESET CELLULAR AUTOMATA FOR ADAPTIVE WEB PORTAL STRUCTURE IN EGYPTIAN UNIVERSITIES Yasser F. Hassan Department of Mathematics & Computer Science, Faculty of Science, Alexandria University, Egypt ABSTRACT In the last few years, intelligent software applications are increased in complexity and in stakeholders' expectations, principally due to new internet-centric application areas with better performance. The modeled development process in this paper involves simulated processes of evolution, learning and self-organization. University portal provides a single point of access to university-based resources which are authorized to use. The research explores and adaptive portal website link-structure considering the website as interconnecting cells in cellular automata model browsed from the root domain. The potential of cellular automata model guides the factor adaptation and evaluated and emergent computation adequately extracts the main website profiles in terms of their internal structure. KEYWORDS- University Portal, Web Software, Cellular Automata, Adaptive, Egypt I. INTRODUCTION A university portal is a web-based gateway that provides seamless access to a variety of backend resources [1] [6]. University portal provides end-users with a customized view of software and hardware resources that specific to their particular domain. The main challenge for building university portal is to make up-to-date building information more accessible and reflect the increasing services [2]. Universities want to see a control portal that works with customers (students, staff, or visitors) to help them achieve a building portal that meets both their expectations and building standards designed for the public good.

  • A Diagnostic Chomskian View to Arabic Asymmetry
    Arab World English Journal (AWEJ) Volume 11. Number2 June 2020 Pp.168 -186 DOI: https://dx.doi.org/10.24093/awej/vol11no2.12 A Diagnostic Chomskian View to Arabic Asymmetry Mohammad Awad Al-Dawoody Abdulaal Department of English, College of Science and Humanities Prince Sattam Bin Abdulaziz University Kingdom of Saudi Arabia & Department of English, Faculty of Arts, Port Said University Abstract Agreement asymmetry is one of the significant linguistic phenomena that Arab and Western linguists (Ghaly,1995; Parkinson, 1995; Benmamoun,1998; Collins, 2001; Dayf, 1986) and Aoun, 1994) have tried to account for within the framework of the Government and Binding theory. They focused upon the number asymmetry in different varieties in Arabic. Most linguists assert that in different types of Arabic there is always gender agreement between the subject and the verb. This study aims at giving much evidence for the lack of gender agreement in Modern Standard Arabic(MSA), and at accounting this gender asymmetry within the framework of the Minimality Program (Chomsky, 1995). The sample consists of 37 sentences collected from some Arabic textbooks. To analyze the data collected, a qualitative diagnostic research design was adopted. One of the essential findings of this study is that there is no gender agreement in Verb-Subject-Object (VSO) sentences between the postverbal subject and the verb if the subject is (a) an unreal feminine Noun Phrase (NP), (b) a broken plural NP, (c) an inanimate collective NP, (d) a collective NP, (e) a regular sound feminine plural NP, (f) an irregular sound feminine plural NP, (g) an irregular sound masculine plural NP, and (h) a real feminine NP separated from its verb by any category.
