A team of CSE faculty members and undergraduate students has received the best paper award at the 10th International Symposium on Networks, Computers and Communications (ISNCC’23), held in Doha, Qatar, between October 23-26, 2023.
The awarded paper is titled “Asthma Assessment Device for Pediatric Patients: A Proof of Concept” and co-authored by Dr. Khalid Abualsaud and Dr. Elias Yaacoub, in addition to a group of undergraduate students (Muneera Al-Ghafran, Fatemeh Ahmadizadeh, Asma Alnaimi) from our CSE department, who worked on this idea in their senior design project in the academic year 2022-2023. The work consists of building a proof of concept that uses various sensors to monitor asthma attacks for children under twelve years of age, achieving high levels of accuracy. This paper was contributed as an outcome of research project NPRP13S-0205-200270 from the Qatar National Research Fund (QNRF) led by Dr. Khalid Abualsaud.
