Key Issues for Long Term Climate Policy Design in Gulf Countries with Focus on Qatar
(
Gulf Studies center - College of Arts & Sciences - Qatar University
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
We analyze the challenges and options of designing an efficient global climate policy for GCC countries. We review the exposure of GCC countries to climate risks and the mitigation and adaptation options at their disposal. ...
A Family of High Step-Up A-Source Inverters with Clamped DC-Link Voltage
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
A family of novel impedance source inverters based on an auto-transformer is presented in this manuscript. The proposed topologies utilize minimal coupled inductors turns ratio to obtain high voltage boost ability in ...

, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Cloud computing has been presented as one of the most efficient techniques for hosting and delivering services over the internet. However, even with its wide areas of application, cloud security is still a major concern ...
On network flow maximization via multihop backhauling and UAVs: An integer programming approach
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Although small cells (SC) densification approach plays a prominent role in achieving the data rate and coverage requirements in 5G networks, it poses serious challenges concerning the flexible and cost efficient backhauling ...
ICIC-Enabled Association and Channel Selection for UAV-BSS Based on User Locations and Demands
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
In this work, the downlink association problem is studied when inter-cell interference coordination (ICIC) is enabled at the network side. The serving base stations (BSs) are mounted over unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), ...

(
Gulf Studies center - College of Arts & Sciences - Qatar University
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
The rise of shale oil and gas, particularly in the United States, and its emergence
as the largest producer of oil and an exporter of natural gas and a modest amounts
of oil, has transformed the US as the net importer ...
Shifting Crude Flows And Rising Competition In Asia: Implications For Gulf Producers
(
Gulf Studies center - College of Arts & Sciences - Qatar University
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
The Middle East is the world's largest crude exporter with the majority of its crude
