Education

Master's degree, Intelligent Visual Mining for Secure Business Intelligence Applications
  • at Faculty of Computers and Information, Cairo University
  • February 2014

[Feb 2014] Cairo University - Faculty of Computers and Information I have got master's degree in computer science. Masters topic: Intelligent Visual Mining for Secure Business Intelligence Applications.  Abstract: Global economy is a dominating factor in the national economic growth of each country .Yet, it is the economic growth of the individual countries that affects the overall global economy .This mutual effect of national and global economies makes it necessary to find ways and techniques to study the effect between seemingly unrelated projects, industries, or institutions .A major problem impeding reaching this goal is that business managers are always concerned with their projects separately .They do not give enough consideration to how their projects can affect, or be affected by, other projects, nationally or globally .Even when a decision maker is interested in using intelligent mutual effects to manage and maximize revenue, the security and privacy problems become an obstacle .The exchange of data should not jeopardize the ownership and scope of access to data and information .This research aims at utilizing computing science and ICT to overcome this problem . We propose building a tool which will collect the data from seemingly remote projects and discover hidden relations, patterns, and clusters, or to discover the lack of such relations, patterns, and clusters .The tool then visualizes the relations between different systems for business managers and decision makers .The power of this study is not limited to the analysis, mining, and visualization of data, but in performing the sophisticated data mining process itself by visualization .Hence, it enables business managers seeing their data in visualized form then business managers can take the needed decisions to maximize the outcome and impact of running those complex systems and optimize the resource utilization .The mining by visualization will also enable decision makers to draw business scenarios on success and failure cases then investigate what’s behind each scenario which will result in better planning and crisis prediction and management.

Bachelor's degree, Computer Science
  • at Faculty of Computers and Information, Cairo University
  • July 2007

2003 - 2007 Cairo University - Faculty of Computers and Information B.Sc .in Computer Science with very good (81%, I was ranked 20th on Computer Science department) Graduation project: Visual Miner (Full mark) • Abstract: Extracting relations among remote dynamic systems which seems to be unrelated is one of the most important goals in Data mining. Relations may be flow relation among these systems or intensity relation that may lead to discover patterns or strength of relation among these systems .In this work we propose mainly to make visual mining tool which let the user make mining with his/her eyes instead of calculating it, the tool will display the flow and intensity on graph to let the user see the system from different views and he/she will be able at this time to determine if there is important relation detected may affect in decision making or not also there is another functionality it is significant intersection that allow user to detect the flow of one object in the system and see all intersections of this object in the system The results of using this tool will help in decision making to be easier and save time instead of wasting long time in mathematical calculation. • The project implemented using Java3d and Java.
