Thesis Title: "QoE-driven Uplink Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP in LTE" Description: In cellular networks, the increasing number of mobile devices capable of recording video leads to an increasing amount of user generated content, which can be made available live as well as on-demand for the viewers. Nowadays, most of the video traffic is HTTP based. Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (MPEG DASH) offers more transport flexibility in mobile networks than traditional HTTP progressive streaming. The goal of this master thesis was to investigate the resource allocation of an LTE cell for multiple uplink DASH video streams in order to maximize the Quality of Experience (QoE) of the viewers. Keywords: QoE, Resource Allocation, HTTP, Video on Demand Streaming, Live Streaming

Diploma, Cisco Certified Network Associate (Routing and Switching)

CGPA: 3.67 Percentage: 86% Top Position Holder throughout the Bachelors Degree. Full Scholarship Holder throughout the Bachelors Degree. B.Sc. Final Project / Publication Details: Farhan Pervez, Ali Nawaz Khan, and Muhammad Waqas Anwar, "A Model Design of Network Security for Private and Public Data Transmission", Journal of Basic and Applied Scientific Research (ISSN 2090-424X) 2011 1(10): 1623-1632, October 2011 Description: We implemented a network design that could solve the queries related to secured private and public data transmission. We used Firewalls (Cisco PIX/ASA) to secure a private network from internal and external threats. We also created virtual private networks (VPN) over a shared public network that uses hashing and encryption algorithms to make a logical tunnel around the data packets. At the end we analyzed our traffic that enters and leaves the private network by using a security device manager. Keywords: Firewall, VPN, Network Security Internships: Designed the LAB Topology of COMSATS Lahore Data Communication and Networking Laboratory during INTERNSHIP in Summer 2009 Internship Training in PTCL in the department of Wireless Local Loop (WLL), EWSD Switching, Transit.
