During my PhD, I have proposed resources allocation, task admission control and task scheduling solutions for cloud systems and mobile clouds. During my MSc, I have solved the problem of Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) and Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) coexistence and integration in the Industrial, Scientific, and Medical (ISM) frequency band at 2.4 GHz.

2 Ryerson Graduate Award, 2011 Ryerson Graduate Scholarship, 2010 Ryerson Graduate Award, 2009 RESEARCH Research Assistant, Ryerson University Resource Allocation and Task Admission Control in Mobile Cloud Computing: Nowadays, smartphones require increasing amounts of computational power and energy. In this work I have proposed resources allocation and task admission control model to accommodate the offloaded jobs from mobile devices on the cloud servers. In other word, I have presented solutions which exploit the concept of smartphone virtualization in the cloud and I have provided method-level computation offloading. Research Assistant, Ryerson University Advisors: Professor Jelena Misic and Professor Vojislav B. Misic Task Admission Control and Resource Allocation in Cloud Computing Centers: The cloud service providers must obtain techniques and mechanisms that guarantee a minimum level of Quality-of-Service (QoS). In this work, I have proposed a performance model that provides clear insights into arrangement of server pools and scheduling the mobile tasks which assists cloud providers to choose the optimal configuration based on their service level agreement (SLA) obligations. Moreover, energy efficiency is one of the top priorities in a cloud data center. In my work, I have also employed energy consumption reduction techniques without sacrificing performance. Research Assistant, Ryerson University Advisors: Professor Jelena Misic and Professor Vojislav B. Misic The Integration of WLAN with RFID Systems in ISM Frequency Band Environment: In this work, I have attempted to solve the problem of WLAN and RFID coexistence and integration in frequency band of 2.45 GHz or ISM band. My solution to this problem is to allow the WLAN access and RFID access in a time-sharing manner by making the WLAN Access Point aware of the RFID neighbor-network at MAC layer.

(Assure 360 Inc.) had a plan to develop a service which can estimate the identity assurance of an individual by combining identity document verifications by authorized agents. The purpose of this project was providing accountability of cyber and physical access control attempted by authorized individuals. In this project, other than populating database of IV system users and their history of using the system, we have designed an Identity Verification Score (IVS) generation scheme which generates an IV score for each individual based on the number of government external attribute authorities, banks, employers, online businesses and social media outlets that verify in person the identity credentials of the user as belonging to the user. AisleTracker Technology, Toronto, Ontario, Canada Winter 2013 Consultant AisleTracker Technology is a company which develops mobile apps to track and locate products in supermarket by providing aisle information to product locations within the stores of costumer s choice. In this project, we had detailed study of AisleTracker and comparative market analysis for what is going on in marketplace for suggestions about how improvements can be made to AisleTracker. Moreover, we

5 studied the native frameworks and native UI s about feasibility and restrictions for AisleTracker to be implemented on native platforms and we presented our suggestions on the studied topics. Iran Telecom Research Center (ITRC), Tehran, Iran Project Manager ( ) IP Telephony and IP Infrastructure project Project Coordinator and Software Engineer ( ) I have coordinated a project which in four major Telecom vendors (Alcatel, Huawei, Siemens and ZTE) were present to provide the Next Generation Network (NGN) pilot. In this project, the interoperability of the NGN equipments of these four vendors were tested. I have reviewed the test templates and test results from the test database and captured files. Also, I have negotiated with representative of vendors regarding to the configurations and test results. I have also been a member of a group which have developed an NGN prototype. Software Engineer and Designer ( ) I have provided the Management program GUI (Graphic User Interface) of IP Telephony for both major IP Telephony Protocols (H.323 & SIP) With Visual C and I utilized SQL Server As Database platform which included configuration and reconfiguration of H.323 & SIP protocols, reporting environment for H.323 & SIP Protocols (Charging & Traffic reports) and setting time for saving whole of the reports on other correspondent backup files.
