Academic Qualification
Ph.D. in Computer Science - 2024
Nov 1, 2021 - Feb 29, 2024College of Computer Science and Mathematics, University of Mosul – 2024
The doctoral thises focuses on the design and development of a robust, containerized framework for Blockchain-based Big Data applications. It addresses key challenges in performance, scalability, and security by integrating containerization technologies, lightweight blockchain, and real-time big data tools. The framework is applied to intelligent transportation systems, specifically vehicle speed data management, demonstrating high throughput, fault tolerance, and efficient resource utilization.
M.Sc. in Computer Science- 2010
Sep 1, 2009 - Feb 27, 2010College of Computer Science and Mathematics, University of Mosul – 2010
Development of an information retrieval system that leverages fuzzy logic to enhance the ranking of documents
based on relevance. The approach aims to improve search accuracy and flexibility by addressing the uncertainty and imprecision often present in natural language queries.
B.Sc. in Computer Science – 2008
Sep 1, 2004 - Jun 1, 2008College of Computer Science and Mathematics, University of Mosul – 2008
The undergraduate program provided a solid foundation in core areas of computer science, including programming, algorithms, data structures, database systems, and computer architecture. The curriculum emphasized both theoretical principles and practical skills necessary for software development and computing problem-solving.

Cloud OCR implementation in Iraqi government SaaS: A step towards digital transformation
Aug 31, 2024The present paper examines the deployment of Cloud Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology within the Software as a Service (SaaS) platforms of the Iraqi government, which can be considered a strategic step in digitalization in notary uses. The benefits, challenges, and possible outcomes of Cloud OCR incorporation into different government services are discussed in order to outline the opportunities it creates in terms of accelerating citizens’ efficient and transparent access to available services. Cloud OCR allows the Iraqi government to facilitate document processing, enhance the accuracy of provided data, and accelerate decision-making, especially for notarized processing. The paper depicted the MATLAB simulations for processing times of OCR and paper-based text extraction methods across multiple iterations along with accuracy rates for both cases for 25 documents that validate the main objective of this study. The significance of microstrip devices, IoT, AI, and cybersecurity in Cloud OCR are as well determined in this study. © The Author 2024.
