Profile Summary

I am an Assistant Professor of Computer Science (University of Sargodha) and a Publication Consultant specializing in IoT–Edge–Cloud systems, offloading, computer networks, and AI integration. My research spans smart cities, vehicular networking, and healthcare IoT, with collaborations across Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE. I have served as an academic editor, guiding authors through SCI/Scopus-indexed venues from early drafting to successful revisions. Over the past 15 years, I have combined research with large-scale training as a certified Expert Trainer (British Council, Microsoft, QAED), mentoring faculty and students in research methodology, scientific writing, and instructional design. On Kolabtree, I offer ethical publication support: deep manuscript editing and restructuring; systematic literature review (SLR) coaching; LaTeX/Overleaf typesetting; IEEE/Elsevier formatting and journal compliance; figure/table polishing; and response‑to‑review support while preserving the author’s voice. I work comfortably with LaTeX, Overleaf, Python, and MATLAB for analysis and visualizations, and I am meticulous about clarity, contribution framing, and journal fit. If your goal is a clear, rigorous, and compliant manuscript, I can help move it from draft to decision‑ready—on time and with integrity.
