Samar Elmaadawy

Biography

Samar Elmeadawy received her B.Sc. degree with the highest honors in Communications Engineering, from the German University in Cairo (GUC), Egypt. She conducted her Bachelor Thesis and Project in the safety analysis of aircraft systems, under the title of utilizing a Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP) algorithm in a Model-Based Safety Analysis (MBSA) tool, at the Flight System Dynamics (FSD) Institute at the Technical University of Munich (TUM), Germany.

Previously, she worked as a Junior Teaching Assistant at GUC since 2016 for 2 years, started her research in Steganography and Image Processing in 2018, was a working student in the Hardware Security Department at Fraunhofer AISEC, Munich, Germany, and a research student at the Chair of Security in Information Technology at TUM in 2019.

She is currently pursuing her Ph.D. degree under the supervision and guidance of Prof. Josep M. Jornet from the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at Northeastern University, Boston, USA.
