Born in Calcutta on 12th September
1952, Dr. Om Kumar Harsh possesses four research degrees, namely
Ph.D., D.Sc. (Physics), Ph.D. (Information Systems, branch of Computer
Science from Australia) and Master of Electronic Engineering by
research from Australia. He has also completed two more Masters
Degrees (in addition to the above mentioned Maters’ in Electrical
Engineering), namely in Physics and Computer Science (Australia).
He also possesses a post graduate diploma in Instrumentation from
Australia. In addition, Dr. Harsh has also guided half a dozen Ph.
D. students, 4 M. Tech students and several Masters’ and Honours
students in various areas and published or presented around 90 research
papers (50 research papers in journals and 40 research papers in
the conferences). He has published his research papers in the journals
of International repute in the field of Plasma Physics, Semiconductors,
X-Rays, Chemical Shift, Software Engineering, Distance Education,
Information Systems, Knowledge Management.
Dr. Harsh has a wonderful academic
career of working as an academician in all the three fields namely
Physics, Engineering and Computer Science. He has done his research
work with five internationally recognized scientists including Professor
K.S. Srivastava, Late Professor R.N. Singh, Late Professor Bipin
Kumar Agarwal, Professor A. S. M. Sajeev and Professor Martin Green.
One of his important achievements
came when in a ceremony at the Kanpur University, ex-President of
India and sitting Vice-President, Dr K. R. Narayanan, awarded first
Doctor of Science degree (Physics) in the history of Kanpur University
to Dr. Harsh in 1990.
Research papers of Dr. Harsh have
widely been used across Europe and American continents; Eminent
International Scientist and late Professor B.K. Agarwal of Allahabad
University (who was the research supervisor of Dr Harsh) has cited
his important research papers in his book published from Springer-varlog
(West Germany).
Dr. Harsh has widely been invited
by various universities around the world to deliver his research
talks. One of his most important lectures was delivered at the Australian
National University, Canberra in November 2000 which is available
on the Web. He has been the member of the various international
committees.
Dr. Harsh has also been engaged
in industrial oriented academic work where he has been utilising
his overall knowledge in the fields of Physics, Engineering, Computing
and Instrumentations. His research work in Plasma Physics, X-Rays,
Hydrodynamics, Scattering and Software Engineering, highlight his
ability of dealing with multiple disciplines. Dr Harsh collaborated
in various international conferences and seminars and presented
over 40 research papers in varied areas.
Dr. Harsh has served at I.T. BHU,
Lucknow University, Kanpur University, University of New South Wales
in Sydney, Monash University and University of South Australia.
Dr Harsh has also worked in Gulf. Dr. Harsh also has industrial
experience in Australia e.g. Compaq Computers. He has been a member
of various Academic and Industrial committees. Dr Harsh has been
involved in distance education (including research, guiding and
teaching) for more than seven years.
Dr. Harsh has taught a wide range
of subjects starting from Physics, Engineering, Computer Science,
Information Technology, Information Systems, Software Engineering
and Instrumentation. In addition to above, Distance Education Technology
and Teaching & Learning have also fascinated him. Recently,
some of his research papers in Information Systems have been published
in the International Journals where he done original research by
extending Nonaka model from two dimensions to three dimensions.
Dr. Harsh left India in August
1994, and since then he has been serving in various organisations
in Australia. He has also worked in Monash University, Malaysia.
He has supervised excellent research
students who are working in various positions across Australia,
India and US.
He has also written and edited
several general articles published in the various magazines and
newspapers across the globe. In the beginning of his career, Dr
Harsh was awarded senior and Post-doctoral research fellowships
by the Council of Scientific and Industrial research, New Delhi,
India.
Dr Harsh has been widely involved
with various universities of UK, USA and South Asia for the courses
development, articulation agreement and various other academic activities.
His latest research work is to extend the pioneer work of Nonaka
(1994) from two to three dimensional systems where knowledge reuse
has been recognised first time as a prime factor.

Research work of Dr Harsh on “Software
Reuse, Knowledge Management and Reuse Techniques” could be
valuable tool for the cost saving strategies by managing and building
new software. In his latest research work (as mentioned above),
Dr Harsh extended the pioneer work of Nonaka (1994) from two to
three dimensional systems where knowledge reuse has been recognized
first time as a prime and independent factor. These materials can
