V DOCTORAL WORK ---------------- After finishing course requirements, my doctoral work was performed in the Laboratory of Automatic at the University of Science and Technique, Montpellier, France, under the supervision of Professor Durante, then the president of the Laboratory. The Laboratory is an advanced french center for computers, robotics, and related studies (an equivalent to a computer science department). The title of the thesis was "Modelization and Simulation of Systems of Deterministic and Probabalisistic Characteristics and Events". Several concepts of digital and hybrid computing and related algorithms were studied both theortically and simulated experimentally. Fairly original modules were designed and integrated into a simulator which was attached to a minicomputer.
VI TEACHING ----------- At EE/KFUPM, I have been teaching mainly digital, computer and microprocessor-related courses both at the undergraduate and graduate levels. But, I have also taught most of the electronic courses and some of other speciality courses as well. I have developed course or lab materials for a number of courses (EE-201, 204, 390, 445, 456, 501, 503, and 545).
Digital and Computer Courses: ----------------------------- EE-200 Digital Logic Design EE-390 Digital Systems Engineering EE-429 Micrcomputer Organization EE-501 Design of Digital Computers EE-503 Microprocessor Engineering.
I have been teaching the EE-501 every year since 1993. It has become one of the popular graduate courses in the EE department, and always well attended by EE students and occasionally even by students from other departments.
Electronic Courses ------------------ EE-203 Electronics I EE-303 Electronics II EE-445 Industrial Electronics EE-456 Communication Electronics
The EE-445 and EE-456 courses were dormant courses when I started teaching them. I had to develop materials and lab experiments for them from scratch. I taught them for a number of years, and they became very successful and well attended courses.
