Biography

 

Mahmoud Hussein received his BSC (Excellent with honor degree), and Master Degree in Computer Science from Menofyia University, Faculty of Computers and Information in May 2006, and May 2009 respectively.

 

Prior to joining Swinburne as a PhD candidate, Hussein was a research assistant in the Faculty of Computers and Information, Menofyia University from December 2006 to August 2009.

 

Research Topic: Integrated Modeling of Context-Aware Adaptive Software Systems

 

Abstract: Research in systems that adapt itself to changes in user needs and its operational environment has been conducted by researchers from two communities with two different emphases: self-adaptivity and context awareness. Self-adaptivity has been proposed to reduce the complexity associated with the management of large scale software systems. It provides the ability for the software to adapt itself at runtime with changes in its environment and user needs, without specifying how its environment is represented and processed. On the other hand, context awareness shares the same goal with self-adaptivity. It is concerned with modeling the system environment, without specifying how the system responses to its environment changes. In fact, real world systems such as vehicle systems need to deal with both aspects. This research aims to investigate the issues of integrating the context awareness and self-adaptivity aspects in developing context-aware adaptive software systems. (Thesis Proposal)
