As-salamu alaykum (Peace be upon you :)
I belong to Bangladesh, one of the world's most densely populated countries. Growing up in an environment with limited resources, I aim to create, develop, and implement sustainable systems tailored for societies facing resource constraints. Hence, I have established the ‘Computing for Sustainability and Social Good (C2SG) Research Group’, dedicated to the research and development of sustainable societies. This interdisciplinary lab engages researchers from diverse fields such as computer science, biology, public health, and behavioral sciences. Our research, spanning HCI, deep learning, the Internet of Things, and Cloud Computing, focuses on practical applications contributing to societal well-being to provide solutions for underrepresented groups. Currently, my focus is on understanding the needs of under-served, underrepresented, and marginalized communities, then co-design, and co-develop systems for them.
I love teaching and spending time with my students. As an Associate Professor at UIU, I am privileged to mentor enthusiastic students with a keen interest in technology. I oversee thesis students, and our research groups consistently achieve remarkable results across various sectors, publishing in esteemed journals and conferences. I have completed my Ph.D. and M.Sc. Engg. from CSE, BUET under the supervision of Prof Dr. A. B. M. Alim Al Islam Razi (The person I greatly admire, I learned “Never Give Up” and always be a part of impactful research from him. Before UIU, I worked as an assistant professor at BRACU, a team lead, and a software analyst for the IPV-Cloud team at IPvision Canada Inc. I have a diversified career and experience. I received several grants for projects (RSGI 2023, RSGI 2024) and for presenting papers in Top venues (Gary Marsden Travel Awards, IEEE Comsoc Travel Grant, etc).
