Awards & Achievements

1999 - IEEE Fellow For contributions to the development of multimedia synchronization models and associated algorithms.

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Operating system
  • Computer network
  • Artificial intelligence

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Access control, Multimedia, Data mining, Distributed computing and Theoretical computer science. Arif Ghafoor specializes in Access control, namely Role-based access control. His Multimedia research incorporates elements of Synchronization, Temporal database and Synchronization.

His work carried out in the field of Synchronization brings together such families of science as Computer network and Data synchronization. His study looks at the relationship between Data mining and fields such as Semantics, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems. His Distributed computing research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Computational complexity theory, Multiprocessing and Scheduling.

His most cited work include:

  • Synchronization and storage models for multimedia objects (539 citations)
  • A generalized temporal role-based access control model (538 citations)
  • Interval-based conceptual models for time-dependent multimedia data (279 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His main research concerns Distributed computing, Multimedia, Computer network, Access control and Role-based access control. His Distributed computing study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Scheduling, Queueing theory and Heuristics. He usually deals with Multimedia and limits it to topics linked to Data modeling and Data mining.

His Computer network study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as The Internet and Synchronization. His Access control research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Security policy, Theoretical computer science, Authorization and Interoperability. The various areas that Arif Ghafoor examines in his Role-based access control study include Interoperation and Security management.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Distributed computing (23.86%)
  • Multimedia (22.81%)
  • Computer network (15.44%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2006-2020)?

  • Data mining (8.42%)
  • Access control (14.74%)
  • Computer security (10.88%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His primary scientific interests are in Data mining, Access control, Computer security, Distributed computing and Role-based access control. His work on Knowledge extraction and Relational database as part of general Data mining study is frequently linked to Biological imaging and Metropolitan area, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science. Within one scientific family, Arif Ghafoor focuses on topics pertaining to Information privacy under Access control, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Authorization.

His work deals with themes such as The Internet and Internet privacy, which intersect with Computer security. Arif Ghafoor combines subjects such as Workload, System of systems, Cloud computing and Enterprise information security architecture with his study of Distributed computing. His Role-based access control study incorporates themes from System testing, Fault model, Fault coverage and Fault detection and isolation.

Between 2006 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Watermarking Relational Databases Using Optimization-Based Techniques (102 citations)
  • 2K09 and thereafter : the coming era of integrative bioinformatics, systems biology and intelligent computing for functional genomics and personalized medicine research (80 citations)
  • Formal foundations for hybrid hierarchies in GTRBAC (45 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Operating system
  • Computer network
  • Artificial intelligence

Arif Ghafoor mainly focuses on Access control, Computer security, Data mining, World Wide Web and Distributed computing. In Access control, he works on issues like Information privacy, which are connected to Authorization. His studies examine the connections between Computer security and genetics, as well as such issues in Internet privacy, with regards to Big data.

His study in Data mining is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Data modeling, Domain, Tuple and k-anonymity. In his work, Fault tolerance, Fault detection and isolation and Computer engineering is strongly intertwined with System testing, which is a subfield of Distributed computing. As part of one scientific family, he deals mainly with the area of Relational database, narrowing it down to issues related to the Watermark, and often Theoretical computer science.
