Dr Essam Eliwa PhD

Senior Lecturer


Summary

I now work as a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Computing, in the Software Engineering subject group. I have a doctorate and a master’s degree in computer science from the University of Nottingham (UON), My professional career has been focused on teaching and software development, and I pride myself on my ability to train and teach others about complex topics in the field of computer science with a focus on software engineering.  Over the years, my various teaching roles have given me profound insights into the educational process. I have had the privilege of working with a diverse group of international students, undertaking responsibilities such as course/lab instruction, grading assignments, supervising projects, and providing individualized tutoring sessions. Upon completing my PhD, I transitioned to the role of a clinical trials programmer. In this capacity, I contributed to the development of customized web applications specifically designed for the management and collection of clinical trial data.
Since 2014, I have been working as an assistant professor in Egypt at several prestigious academic institutions, including Misr International University (MIU), the Arab Academy for Science, Technology and Maritime Transport, and Ain Shams University. My teaching portfolio includes courses such as Introduction to Software Engineering, Web Applications Programming, and Mobile Applications Programming.

My main research interest remains in the field of Web Science focusing on information retrieval and Web integration. My PhD research was concerned with enabling customised automation of end users’ interactions, introducing a novel approach to automate simple and sophisticated Web activities such as information aggregation. My thesis demonstrated that the development of an interactive end-user programming UNIX-like model for the Web, as a platform in its own terms, is feasible and useful. As part of my research, I have implemented a framework called Web2Sh (Web 2.0 Shell), which includes the design and implementation of scripting language (WSh). It is a realistic environment for creating, customising, and running Web-oriented automation tools. My PhD thesis was supervised by Dr. Colin Higgins and Dr. Peter Blanchfield at the school of computer science, University of Nottingham.
