The Washington Accord known as a mutual recognition agreement between national engineering regulatory bodies was signed in 1989 by six founding signatories. Through this mutual recognition agreement the signatories recognize that the formal educational programs accredited by the respective signat...
To improve the sampling frequency of water diversion to distributary canals and to improve equity of distribution and data handling we have developed a smart electronic water meter based on ultrasonic sensors and GPRS modem to frequently record and transmit the water diversion data to a centraliz...

Development of a low-power smart water meter for discharges in Indus Basin irrigation networks
A sequential irrigation scheduling problem is the problem of preparing a schedule to sequentially service a set of water users. This problem has an analogy with the classical single machine earliness/tardiness scheduling problem in operations research. In previously published work, integer progra...

Canal irrigation conundrum: applying contingency theory to irrigation system management in India
The fixed-turn or warabandi system of irrigation management is aimed at providing equitable rationing of Pakistan's limited water resources. This paper assesses the equity in practice of the warabandi system using the Gini and Theil indices. Defining equity as the delivery of an equal depth of wa...
This paper examines mutual recognition of professional engineering qualifications and the globalisation of accreditation of engineering education by US organisation ABET. Scrutiny of the Washington Accord on mutual recognition and a recent attempt to gain ABET accreditation for a UK civil enginee...

Is the USA set to dominate accreditation of engineering education and professional qualifications?
The Indus Basin Irrigation System (IBIS) lacks a system for measuring canal inflows, storages, and outflows that is trusted by all parties, transparent, and accessible. An earlier attempt for telemetering flows in the IBIS did not deliver. There is now renewed interest in revisiting telemetry in ...
