Khawar AHMAD

University of the West of England (UWE), Bristol – United Kingdom

After the completion of graduate studies, I have been selected as Research Associate at NUST Institute of Information. Based on good academic record and good work experience, I have been invited by CERN Geneva, Switzerland to work on CMS Experiment for the duration of one year in 2007. My ability to learn new things and my past experience helped me a lot in understanding my work in CERN. I worked on iCMS; a modern web information system that handles the  notes, news,  agendas  and  data  analysis produced in a collaboration of about  6000 physicists,  engineers  and  technicians at CERN. I worked on notes approval workflow and developed CMS people/institute search tools.  I am happy I was able to complete my job to their satisfaction level. During my stay at CERN, I met with Prof. Richard McClatchey of University of the West of England. My CERN experience helped me to get MPhil opportunity in the distributed computing group at UWE. I started my MPhil in October 2008 and now I am doing my thesis on optimizing workflow execution performance. As a case study, I am using AlcaRecoWorkflow used at Tier0 for reconstructing data coming from the detector at CMS experiment.
