Yasir was a very intelligent and real embedded programmer. He used to link everything with some hardware interfacing and bring up something new. He was our team lead in final year project and was successful in managing every task. He do not compromise on quality and can expense more (if needed) to complete the task at its best.

During his thesis work in ABB Corporate Research, Yasir has been involved in the improvement of our PV lab and has set up an automatic data acquisition system for acquiring measurements from various outdoor sensors. For that purpose, he has been working on testing and fixing the remaining issues regarding a DAQ board that was previously designed. The DAQ board was designed during 2011 by a group of 5 students from Mälardalens Högskola in the context of a student work that lasted 9 weeks. Yasir was a part of this student group and he has actively contributed in the hardware implementation of the DAQ board and PCB design. After starting his thesis work, Yasir has been working in order to fix the remaining issues with the DAQ board that has been previously developed. In addition he developed the software needed for the communication of one or several DAQ boards with a master computer via a common RS485 communication bus, by using the MODBUS communication protocol. Moreover, he tested the functionality and communication of a single DAQ board as well as of a pair of DAQ boards and developed a graphical user interface for easy access of the DAQ boards via the master computer. After that he wrote a detailed report on the hardware and software implementation related to the DAQ system consisting of one or multiple DAQ boards connected on a common communication bus. However, the testing process has been performed indoors and thus, Yasir has set up an outdoor test setup for outdoor testing of the DAQ boards. The outdoor setup included the placement of solar irradiation, temperature and wind sensors as well as the selection of suitable transducers for each sensor, the interconnection of signal wires with the DAQ board and the connection of the board to the communication bus. Finally, Yasir performed the testing of the DAQ board under outdoor conditions and fixed the remaining malfunctions. Therefore, during his thesis work, Yasir has contributed in implementing an outdoor data acquisition system for automatic measurements using various sensors, that is valuable for our research activities on the behavior of PV modules under outdoor conditions.
