INDUSTRIAL EXPERIENCES & PROJECTS
Managed the Engineering 1 website performance and functionality. Performed the ongoing day-to-day operation of the server, including maintaining system security, monitoring usage statistics and logs, modifying configuration settings, and backing up the system. Successfully completed website migration from LUE1.net to two new domains LUENGR1.net and UBEAS230.net. Tasks were performed utilizing knowledge of PHP, MySQL, and HTTP and FTP servers.
Assisted professors in grading,
in creative advancement of coursework, and in website development. Helped out students
with assignments. Offered lectures and graded homework and exams for Design &
Analysis of Algorithms, Foundation of Algorithms, C Programming & Microsoft
Office XP.
Developed
INFINITY Voice Logging System,
which was
designed to record audio conversations/messages between Control Tower and pilots
and among the Civil Aviation Authority staff. Contained in system are
user-friendly software and dedicated hardware to process logging from almost all
audio sources.
Designed and implemented
internetwork model through Frame Relay using CISCO routers (WAN
technology). Authored project report with detailed comparison between X.25
and Frame Relay technologies,
model plan and execution steps, router configuration and successful
results.
Worked as part of project team, dedicated to Pakistan Navy Dockyard. Created and maintained the project database and website. Provided innovative ideas to improve successful and timely completion.
Completed
research on Wireless Application
Protocol (WAP) in the form of a hypothetical study report labeled Directory
Enabled Network (DEN). Included in report was detailed study of different
architectures that WAP is compatible with, structure and effective usage of DEN, and
its useful applications.
Designed database EOBI Management System to run on three zones of EOBI (Employees Old-Age Benefits Institution). All information from zones was gathered and analyzed to make valuable decisions to improve the user benefits policy. Proposed and initiated wired network among three zones to provide resourceful communication. Both database and network were first time designed, created and implemented at EOBI.
