She has supervised 1 PostDoctoral Fellow, 13 PhD students, 5 Master of Computer Science (by Research) and 28 Master of Computer Science (Mixed Mode) and Taught course.
Rafidah’s research is related to a field of transportation system in computer science research domain. For many computer scientists, theory and practice may denote a distinction without difference, so rapidly have her research framework on Intelligent Transport System (ITS) been tested in large computational experiments in hopes of improving the road traffic system for urban environments. She is also active in research grant's evaluation at University and Ministry Level.
Rafidah has performed more than 2 Million (Ringgit Malaysia) research grants from internal and external entities. She is also a co-researcher grants from local universities such as Sunway University, Universiti Malaysia Sabah, and Universiti Teknologi Malaysia Melaka.

She has filed and granted several copyrights from her research works since 2012 to current. Rafidah’s efforts are driven by the courage to implement the framework that challenges the existing protocol/standard. Her research interests include vehicular networks, mobile and wireless networks, Internet-of-Things, Cloud and Fog computing, Quality of Service (QoS), and Energy Management.
She is actively publishing journals in Science Citation Index Expanded (SCIE - with Cumulative Impact Factor (CIF) more than 130) and Scopus. She has published 86 SCIE indexed journals (50% published in Tier 1), H-index (16 in Publons and 19 in Scopus), and 1173 Scopus Citation.
