I received Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Ottawa, Canada, in December 2009. Currently, I am teaching in the School of Information Technology at Carleton University, Canada. In addition, I am a part-time professor in the School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at the University of Ottawa, Canada. Earlier, I worked in the Department of Software Engineering at King Saud University as an assistant professor [2011-2012]. During my stay in Bangladesh, I was a faculty [2002 t0 2005] of Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) department at Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET). I completed M.Sc. and B.Sc. in Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) from Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology in 2004 and 2002, respectively.

 

I was a post-doctoral fellow at DISCOVER LAB for two years [2009-2011] conducting research on IBM surveillance project. My dissertation establishes a solution for Peer-to-Peer Massively Multiplayer Online Games. I received student researcher award by OCRI and best paper award. He has authored and co-authored more than 45 publications including refereed journals, conference papers, and book chapters. I was recognized as a meritorious candidate by Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC) and nominated for Industrial Research and Development Fellowship.

 

In KSA, I am a co-investigator of two NPST research projects with an approximate funding of $800,000. The projects are: 1) Privacy and Quality-aware Monitoring Framework for Public Security, and 2) Novel Pervasive Computing Approach in the form of Serious Games to Counter and Manage Obesity. My current research interests are distributed systems, algorithms, simulation and modeling, serious games, eHealth, surveillance systems, multimedia communications, large scale collaboration, and cloud computing.
