    Performance improvement by cellular manufacturing techniques in a piston manufacturing line
    (UMT, Lahore, 2017) Basit Kamal
    In modern industrialization, every industry wants to make profits with promised delivery time and minimum material waste. Since the human race is to make new products to attract customers, there has been competitions as not in means of technology but in the ways of production. As the word Group Technology (GT) sounds that it should be former, but it allows organization to compete with each other minimizing work-in-progress, lead times while producing a wide range of products. Cellular manufacturing has been a widely research conducted subject throughout the world. Different part-machine algorithms, coding system techniques, pattern recognition methods are introduced. The traditional body has been grouped under categories like part family identification, GT in engineering design etc. Different methods are available for it. In Pakistan cellular manufacturing are rather new and had application in very few industries. The main aim of this thesis is to apply these cellular manufacturing algorithms and techniques in an industry within Pakistan and then evaluate the results generated from it. By applying these techniques it is noted that there is a massive change in material handling, throughput time, setup time etc. The results from manual methods and cellular algorithms are generated and then they are compared and analyzed.

    A study on Pakistan’s climate change policy and the challenges it will face in future rapid climate change
    (UMT, Lahore, 2019) Muhammed Abrar
    There is growing global consensus that climate change is the greatest upcoming global threat to humankind in modern times and is likely to have serious consequences for socio-economic sectors such as health, food production, energy consumption, security and natural resource management in near future. Pakistan is a developing country that has been severely hit by climate change affects in some last year’s Although Pakistan contributes very little to global greenhouse gas emissions. To face potential impacts of climate change in near future, a strong policy and institutional setup should be developed. Therefore this research aims to study the possible knowledge that policy makers and the government officials should focus on Therefore they can prepare themselves in the near future. Focusing on future vulnerability is the key feature for the achievement of Sustainable development. Government officials and policy makers face many challenges for Effective implementation of strategies to face the possible climate change affects, but the main gap lies in lack of participation of different affective communities at any level of policy-making. Therefore there is a strong need of Education on climate change and affective awareness at the governmental and local levels that will help us for Building the capacity for researchers policy makers and local communities. Therefore according to present and past circumstances effective measures should be needed to address climate change phenomena in Pakistan. It is essential that the government strongly recognize potential future climate risks and protect the environment.

    Optimized utilization of advanced CCTV analytics
    (UMT, Lahore, 2020) Mr. Raza Hashim
    Increasing traffic on highways and motorways spawned an interest in Toll collection at toll plazas of national highways. Toll tax is collected to recover the capital outlay which includes road safety and maintenance expenditure and also add ups in the national budget. At some places of local city toll plazas in Pakistan there are no CCTV cameras installed and simple token is issued to vehicles. And where CCTV cameras are installed have purpose of just monitoring the evidence at toll booth. Although CCTV Security cameras are very important part of any facility to monitor and capture the evidence in case of any incident. Now a day’s bank, schools, hotels, airports, hospitals, restaurants, stadiums, shopping marts and other areas also interested in CCTV coverage. Now addition to the camera, advanced video analytics introduced in the system enabling more reliable CCTV platform to secure places. For better safety features we need to understand the importance of Video Analytics of Security cameras and its uses and benefits. By using advanced Vehicle Classification Analytics at Toll plazas we can actually save cost and Toll Tax. Data is collected by toll plazas at national highways and city roads where toll is being collected. Purpose is to make sure the toll collection at toll booth. For this purpose existing setup of CCTV can be used with advanced video analytics of Vehicle Classification, using vehicle classification at toll booth exact number of vehicles and exact type of vehicles passes through the single toll booth will be monitored by the automatic computer based intelligence system. Process for vehicle classification and report generation is discussed and effective results evaluated.
