Abstract

The aim of the study is to provide the means to the faculty of COMSATS Institute of Information Technology, henceforth called (CIIT), who have PhD students ready to be examined for their PhD Degrees. As yet no rule exists demanding external examiner be taken from CIIT, but the time is not far off when such a rule is going to be made in view of the runaway expenditure and appropriateness of examiners. We first describe the structure of the CIIT which is ambitious enough to take a good research position among some 130 universities of Pakistan. This attitude is the outcome of the phenomenon whereby each year Higher Education Commission (HEC) of Pakistan issues a data indicating which university is doing better with regard to its resources. The runaway expenditure of the CIIT might someday provide justification to seek reduced expenditure to have the said rule. It is conjectured that such a study can be expanded to cover in its domain further benefits covering job seeks, seminar givers etc. An XHTML file has been prepared for the experienced CIIT faculty of 8 campuses who may like to be on the list of external examiners. As yet only the artificial names were prepared. The file has been satisfactorily browsed over an XHTML browser. The advantages of XHTML over old technologies like Access and Excel are apparently convenient and the gain of ability to convert XHTML into HTML file, the still extant language of the web file.
