•    Dissertation Title: Distributing Video Content over Wireless Networks Using Device-to-Device (D2D) Communication.

•   Thesis Summary: I propose utilizing the D2D services and cache of mobile devices as a bootstrapping system in a cellular network. The main objective of a Bootstrapping-D2D (BD2D) system is to improve the quality of service in terms of achieving the minimum startup-time of popular video files in a cellular network. To achieve my objective, I propose a new caching concept for D2D communication in which each mobile device can cache and share the beginning video portion or beginning-segments of the popular video files to other proximate users via a D2D

communication link. I formulate an optimisation problem that maximises the cache-hit ratio of beginning-segments of the most popular video contents. I evaluate the performance of the BD2D system and propose algorithms through extensive simulations under real wireless network conditions such as interference, fading and shadowing.

• Publications: I have published my research work in two most prestigious and high impact factor journals and one high quality IEEE conference.

I have submitted one journal article to ”IEEE Transactions on Multimedia” and one conference paper in ”IEEE CQR, 2019” conference, and are under the review process.
