On July 28, 2018, I earned my Doctorate in Earth and Space Sciences from the Universidade de Évora, Portugal. Before that, in September 2014, I completed a Master's in Computer Science and Engineering from United International University in Bangladesh, which was affiliated with the University of Bradford, United Kingdom. I obtained my Bachelor's degree in Computer Science and Engineering from United International University on January 17, 2008. I have previously held the position of Assistant Professor at Daffodil International University in Bangladesh. I am a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Universidade de Évora, working in the Department of Mechatronics Engineering, Instrumentation, and Control Lab, with funding from UniversaPulsar LDA. In addition, I am a co-founder of Neuralsolar, a spin-off of the University of Évora powered by UniversaPulsar LDA, which focuses on improving the efficiency of renewable energy sources and achieving zero carbon emissions. As an entrepreneur, I have worked to create employment opportunities for young researchers, who are actively contributing to the company’s goals. Our company collaborates with PACT of Alentejo in the digitalization of the region. We aim to bridge the gap between education and industry, fostering innovation and sustainable growth. Under the umbrella of UniversaPulsar LDA, we have launched two ongoing projects: NeuralPulsar (https://neuralpulsar.pt) and RapidGov (https://rapidgov.pt), both of which are centered on sustainable development through renewable energy. I have actively participated in various scientific conferences and served as a reviewer for academic organizations and publications. My research interests encompass renewable energy, atmospheric physics, machine learning, and the Internet of Things (IoT) within the domains of engineering and natural sciences. Currently, I am co-supervising two doctoral students and one master's student. I have published four journal articles, contributed to four book chapters, and presented numerous papers at international conferences. In recognition of my work, I have received various awards and distinctions.

  1. Temperature Impact and Efficiency Analysis of Hybrid PVT System. Hybrid photovoltaic thermal (PV/T) systems are a type of solar system that combines the functions of a photovoltaic and a solar thermal in one unit [1]. The PV panels generate electricity from sunlight, while the thermal collection system captures the excess heat produced by the PV panels and uses it to produce warm water or space heating [2]. According to the recent analysis, the efficiency of th. 2023. Ahmed, Md Tofael; Rashel, Masud Rana; Ahmed, Md Jubair; Tlemçani, Mouhaydine. http://hdl.handle.net/10174/34066.
