Currently, I'm a research student pursuing my PhD under the supervision of Prof. Dr.-Ing. Carsten Dachsbacher. Previously, I obtained M.Sc. degree in 2011 and B.Sc. in 2004 from the Computer Science Department, Faculty of Computer and Information Sciences, Ain-Shams University, Egypt.

Research Interests

  • Computer graphics
  • Scientific visualization
  • Parallel processing
  • Real-time and interactive rendering techniques

Hobbies

  • Painting, and modeling on physical, and digital media
  • I enjoy others' drawings and paintings, and use my interest in art to complement and enrich my research experience in computer graphics. I am also exploring digital drawing skills in GIMP, Inkscape, Krita, Clip Studio Paint, and 3D modeling using Blender.

  • Wood working
  • Still geometry and 3D into action.

  • Nature day-making
  • Simply walking outside, sitting on grass, and catch some fresh air.

  • Writing and blogging
  • My writing projects in Arabic are still in progress and are not published yet, due to prioritizing my PhD thesis.
