I joined the University of Calgary in 2004 after completing my Ph.D. at Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN., USA. I had my B.Sc. and M.Sc. degrees from the department of computer science, faculty of engineering, Alexandria, Egypt. My research area is database. Specifically, I am interested in system-oriented database research, data management for stream applications and sensor networks, multimedia databases, spatio-temporal databases, and architecture-aware database design.
