Abdallah Jarwan made a remarkable accomplishment when he defended his Ph.D. thesis as the thesis was nominated for the Gold Medal. Abdallah was one of the distinctive members of our Carleton Sensor Systems and Internet of Things Lab and made great achievements during his period with the lab.

Abdallah has defended his Ph.D. thesis (titled by – Data Management for Enhanced Resource Utilization in Internet of Things Systems) in December 2021 and will be graduating in March 2022. Abdallah has worked on multiple research topics during his period as a Ph.D. student at Carleton University. His research includes the development of data and information management for enhancing the utilization of resources in IoT systems, information-based data routing and reduction, and deep reinforcement learning solutions for IoT network management. He also participated in building a complete IoT testbed solution, where he implemented part of his research algorithms and techniques. His research also includes developing simulation environments for wireless networks and more specifically LTE-based public safety networks. Abdallah is currently working as a Machine Learning Engineer at Lytica Inc., Ottawa.

He has prepared the following list of publications (listed in chronological order):
