Dr. Farooque has now 10 IF publications as primary author. He has won two funded grants as a P.I. and as a PostDoc. His research work is published in Q1 journals such as IEEE Internet of Things Journal, IEEE Comm. Magazine, IEEE Comm. Letters, IEEE Wireless Comm. Letters, Springers Mobile Netw. and App., Springers Peer to Peer Netw. and App. He secured his PhD from SKKU, Korea which is 82nd in QS ranking. Total impact factor = 45+

Our paper published in well-reputated top IEEE journal with IF. 9.47. F. H. Kumbhar, S. Y. Shin, "Novel Vehicular Compatibility based Ad-hoc Message Routing Scheme in the Internet of Vehicles using Machine Learning", IEEE Internet of Things Journal,"

Our first Impact Factor paper published under IntelliNet umbrella in Q1- IEEE Wireless Communications Letters (IF. 4.66). Ahmed, Rabia; Kumbhar, Farooque Hassan "VC^3 : A Novel Vehicular Compatibility-Based Cooperative Communications in 5G Networks"

2020 has been fruitful in terms of publications. We had papers in IEEE Communications Magazine, Springers Peer to Peer networks and applications, IEEE Wireless Communications Letters.

Dr. Farooque presented his work at a conference in KICS, Pyeongchang-gun, Gangwon-do, Korea.

Dr. Farooque has accepted the position of Postdoc researcher on a funded project to work on Vehicular Networks communications, at KIT, South Korea

Our total BS alumni has become 21. The work quality has been improved from a simple project based FYPs to research based and applied research based FYPs.

Two of our students Mr. Muhammad Raza Nathani and Mr. Haider Hasan completed their MS program with flying colors by working hard in Machine learning and IPSec, respectively.

Mr. Khezar Hayat completed his MS program with flying colors by working in routing protocols for IoT. He managed to modify routing protocol for IoT i.e. RPL and implemented it in NS3 simulation.

Our first MS alumni, Mr. Syed Taha. Successfully carried out physical experiments on Etherium blockchain and trust management.

Finally, 1 year's hardwork paid off. 2 paid research assistants, 1 publication, 1 under writing and a completed project.

Now, Dr. Farooque Hassan Kumbhar is an HEC approved supervisor and accepting applications for MS, MPHIL and PhD students.

We have successfully acquired a high end powerful Dell T430 server and Dell Laptop. We have purchased a number of IoT sensors for monitoring renewable sources.

3 BS Groups under supervision of Dr. Farooque Hassan Kumbhar have successfully graduated.

HEC has approved a project on IoT based smart meter project to identify and monitor renewable energy sources.
