Software Engineer

TERA-HZ MİKROELEKTRONİK,•  August 2023 - October 2023

 I got the task of using the OAI-NB-IoT-ntust branch to develop a stand-alone software package for NB-IoT-PHY layer (algorithms and DSP routines) that can interface with a general base station solution.  Completed the study of the OAI code structure with special focus on ITTI (inter task interface) and multithreading and got to a very good level in gaining the needed knowledge towards the goal. Then the project was put on hold by the client.

Senior Software Engineer

Mentor Graphics•  January 2008 - June 2014

was the team lead for the Calibre-PEX team working on the development and maintenance of the tool and rewrite it in C++ while maintaining all functionality and improved functionality and scalability.  Modeling the parasitic of common silicon structures for different processes and technologies.  Improved the parasitic model extraction accuracy and computational time through research studies which outcomes had been integrated into the tool.  Initiated and led the efforts of extraction tool refactoring (from outdated geni-scripting to C++) using UML modeling and design patterns.  Explored and investigated domains adjacent to parasitic extraction such as substrate noise coupling and statistical timing analysis.

Software Engineer

IBM•  September 1993 - July 1996

 Designed and implemented object-oriented client/server database application using C & C++  Implemented and maintained data retrieval application under both VM and MVS using PLAS, PLX, and REXX.

University of Michigan - Ann Arbor, Ann Arbor

Electrical Engineering, PhD•  August 1996 - July 2000

completed my thesis "MMW Scattering By Tree Trunk and Surrounding Environment, Modeling & Analysis", in 2000. I won my scholarship in RadLab (Radiation Laboratory) where i performed my study on MMW (35 & 95 GHz) scattering and studies DSP as a minor.

Cairo University

Electrical Engineering, MS•  September 1993 - July 1996

I completed my MSc. degree with my thesis "Analysis and Design of RF Structures Used for Linear Accelerators" in 1996. in this thesis i developed a C++ code based on the modal expansion technique for analyzing and design of RF linear accelerator.
