The automation of the Yellow Pages in the 1980s
Israeli Avinoam Naor graduated from Tel Aviv College in the mid-1970s with a degree in computer science. Naor’s interest from the beginning was in the telecommunications industry, and in the late 1970s he found a niche in which to work: the automation of telephone directory systems.
By the early 1980s, Naor had perfected the industry’s first computerized directory assistance system. in 1982, Naor and investors including Morris Kahn founded Aurec Information and Directory Systems, which came under the Kahn-controlled Aurec Group, one of the leading telecommunications providers in Israel at the time.
