Publications
My research interests include optimization, block designs and algorithmic graph theory
with application to problems of software engineering and project scheduling. I also fiddle
with associative algebras. The following is a partial list of publications.
- M A Khan, A combinatorial proof of Fisher's inequality (in preparation)
- M A Khan and S Mahmood, Optimal component selection for component-based systems,
(to appear in) Proceedings of International Joint Conferences on Computer, Information, and Systems Sciences, and Engineering
(CISSE 2009), Springer Verlag.
- M A Khan and M K Siddiqui, A tool for quantitative quality assessment of network based schedules,
(to appear in) Proceedings of International Conference on Computing in Civil and Building Engineering 2010
- (with M H Omar et al) Study behavior in a preparatory mathematics program: a case of bilingual Arab pre-university students,
(to appear in) Proceedings of The First International Conference on Mathematics and Statistics (AUS-ICMS'10)
- M A Khan, A note on Fisher's inequality for BIBDs (in preparation)
