This report summarises an experience designing a fragmented curriculum to be suitable to departmental requirements, while maintaining students’ interest and challenge, and satisfying best practice recommendations by Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) IEEE Computer Society. Some of the challenges are discussed, including the pandemic event and its possible negative impact on students’ motivation.
In this document, I linked the learning theories with the Reinforcement Learning algorithm as a measure to enhance the effectiveness of teaching. I presented teaching as a 2-way process: interaction with students through teaching and assessments feedback, and interaction back to the teacher with teaching effectiveness measure to enhance teacher’s pedagogical methods. I emphasised the […]
Summarising my 5 years of lecturing in computer science and engineering, and against all frustrations, I still see computing to be the most important profession for so many years to come. I was requested to write an article (mhelal_computingArticle), and the thoughts expressed themselves in the time frame given. This article could have been better […]

My MSc and PhD research work developed a library for high dimensional datasets (hypercube or tensors) data structure representation and indexing, using the conformal computing – Mathematics of Arrays (MoA) constructs. I developed a hyper-cube partitioning scheme for parallel processing, and applied it to the Multiple Sequence Alignment problem, using a reduced search space method. […]
