Omar's Web Site
Hello, my name is Omar Bashir. I received my BE in Avionics Engineering from NED University of Engineering and Technology, Karachi, Pakistan in December 1989. I did my Masters in Information Technology from Loughborough University of Technology, Loughborough, UK in 1995. My MSc project was based on the development of a low-cost test system to functionally check JPEG encoder-decoder pairs.
I worked for eight months with the High Speed Networks Group at Loughborough University as an academic visitor. I was studying means of detecting events in sequences of compressed image frames. In July 1996 I started my PhD with the High Speed Networks Group on the Management and Processing of Network Performance Information. This project was a part of BT�s URI (University Research Initiative) programme.
I received my PhD in July 1998.
I resigned from PAF on 15 October 2002 and joined Communications Enabling Technologies as a Senior Member of Technical Staff on 20 October 2002.
I worked for a year at Ittihad University in UAE. Then I came back to Loughborough University to do my post-doc with the High Speed Networks Research Group. I am currently working as a Systems Engineer with Systems Integration Division of FKI Logistex developing software for warehouse management and control systems.
