About Me

I was born on the 2nd of March 1978 in Matiari, Pakistan. I received my M.E. (Communication Systems and Networks) in December 2003 from the Mehran University of Engineering & Technology Jamshoro. Since June 2005 I am a member of the DEEDS research group in the Department of Computer Science, Technical University Darmstadt. I'm working as an affiliate with GKmM, an international DFG project.

Research Interests

Mobile ad hoc Wireless Sensor Networks
Reliable Information Transport
Quality of Information
Mobility aspects for enhancing Information Transport

Before Study Leave from Mehran UET, Jamshoro my Research and Academic activities can be found here.
