Sakhawat Hossan

I am a highly-skilled programmer with nine years of comprehensive experience in software design, development, and integration. My advanced proficiency lies in PHP, Python and JavaScript programming languages, and I bring a logical and professional approach to my work, coupled with excellent problem-solving skills. Currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Computer Science with a primary focus on Machine Learning, I am deeply engaged in the latest advancements in the field. My expertise in programming, particularly in Python, PHP and JavaScript, reflects a solid foundation in creating innovative and efficient solutions. With a commitment to staying at the forefront of technology, I am poised to contribute my skills and knowledge to projects that demand precision, creativity, and a deep understanding of programming principles.

Social Network Analysis

• Explore Magdalenian Hunter-Gatherer Societies: Investigate and comprehend the intricacies of social structures within Magdalenian hunter-gatherer societies. This involves a detailed examination of relationships, hierarchies, and behavioral patterns during the Magdalenian era.
• Uncover Hidden Relationships: Utilize advanced analytical techniques to uncover hidden relationships among individuals within the Magdalenian communities. Identify key influencers, social hubs, and the flow of information to gain a comprehensive understanding of the social fabric.
• Similarity Indexing Between Social Sites: Develop and implement similarity indices to quantify and measure the degree of resemblance between different social sites. This comparative analysis aims to identify commonalities, differences, and potential influences that shape social structures across various Magdalenian communities.

Fog-based Dynamic Traffic Light Control System for Improving Public Transport

• Intelligent traffic control system for an entire city using wireless sensor network and fog-computing.
• Proposed an intelligent traffic control system for multiple intersections to cover an entire city using real-time traffic data.
• In this research, we used sensors to collect real-time traffic data and a wireless sensor network for data transmission. Finally, we proposed an algorithm to find the best traffic phase and phase duration for all the intersections of the city.
• In order to achieve a distributed architecture, we used fog computing and Docker to store and transfer data among the intersections

Efficient dynamic traffic light control for ITS

• o Proposed an intelligent traffic control system for a single intersection.
• o Used sensors to collect real-time traffic data and proposed an algorithm that determines the best traffic phase for the individual intersection
