Timeline
Nabil Bukhalid was a Lebanese computer scientist and founder of the Lebanese Academic and Research Network.
He is a Internet Hall of Fame Inductee and he was one of the key figures responsible for introducing the Internet to Lebanon and establishing the Lebanese Domain Registry.
He is commonly referred to as the "Father of the Internet" in Lebanon.
Nabil Bukhalid was born in 1957 in the town of Bhamdoun, Lebanon.
Bukhalid graduated from the American University of Beirut with a Bachelor of Electrical Engineering in 1981 and a Master's in Business Administration in 2005.
After the end of the Lebanese Civil War he emigrated to Montreal, Canada with his wife and daughters.
Bukhalid's experience with computers started during the Lebanese Civil War, where as a biomedical engineer he used to hide in the hospital he used to work at to avoid the destruction of the civil war.
This is where he began to tinker with computers and local area networks.
This led him to attempt to connect the AUB to the internet to connect the university to the academic scene in the United States.
He founded the Lebanese Domain Registry and served as its administrator since 1993.
The original purpose for the .lb DNS was for the AUB's website, and it was created in August 1993.
Bukhalid claimed that the top level domain was assigned to him by Jon Postel, the former administrator of the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA).
In 1997 the .lb domain which used to be given to site owners for free, now had the condition that they must obtain a trademark certificate from the Ministry of Economy and Trade at the request of Bukhalid's team.
This effectively made the entire DNS system run (but not owned) by Bukhalid and his team at AUB, despite their continuous attempts to get a Lebanese governmental agency to run the administration of the .lb domain.
Bukhalid headed the computing and networking services department at AUB as the Chief Enterprise Architect from 2000 until 2011.
In 2011 he met with the former president of Lebanon, Michel Suleiman to discuss how the internet system and the .lb domain would be administered in Lebanon.
He most recently worked as a consultant for organizations specializing in Internet infrastructure.
In 2017 he was inducted into the Internet Hall of Fame for his efforts to bring the internet to Lebanon.
He died on January 4, 2023, from a heart attack while vacationing in London.
