DEVELOPED
   
Over the years i have developed number of applications during various job. These applications were developed on different platforms. Below is the list of some of the most important ones which are currently in use.
   
Event Management System
   
An Event Management Software system designed and developed for events organized by the Deanship of Academic Development, KFUPM. The system is based on .NET with MS SQL at the back end. It is linked with the university HR system for the faculty records and IBM Cognos for providing reports. I was project manager for the system and designed the database and worked on some forms. The system provide some specialized features for the university. Some of these features are:
  • Reminders can be set to the registered participants
  • Events can be created for a specific college/department
  • Events can be created for a specific rank of faculty/instrcutors
  • Events can be linked so that only the participants who have attended some specific event can attend a particular event
  • Events can be grouped under particular tag
  • Multiple departments can be the host of the event
  • User can be stopped from registering in multiple overlapping events
   
Research Management System
   

A Research Management Software system was designed and developed for the Deanship of Scientific Research, KFUPM. System that allows the submission and tracking of projects. A project is created by the faculty by filing an online proposal form. The Deanship of Research staff sends the proposal to external reviewers for evaluation. The external evaluators logs into the system, view the submitted proposal and fills his evaluations. The projects approval or rejection is heavily dependent on these external evaluations. Once the proposal is approved, research can be continued by the faculty and funds are dispersed.

After the research is complete, the faculty is required to submit a final report that is sent to the external evaluators by the staff for evaluation as well. Throughout the lifecycle of the project, the faculty uploads supporting documents for the project. The solution was created as an OOTB solution using custom web parts and custom lists on SharePoint.
   
Faculty Promotion System
   

A customized web based solution is developed for the university to handle the promotion requests for the faculty. The system makes the promotion process totally paperless. The system was developed in .NET with MS SQL. I was responsible for some forms and fixing bugs reported by the uers.

System fullfill some special needs of the system where complete anonymity is provided to the applicants. The committee can be formed within the system and the committee member can set meeting times through their busy schedule through the system. Automatic reminders are sent to the committee members or reviewer if they are taking more time.

System has greatly reduced the time to decision on a promotion application and enhanced efficiency of the committees and reviewers.
