        Human development view to human beings is as a capacity that should be flourished, and this flourishing is obtained only with the empowerment of individuals. One of the main ways to empower communities is to reduce and limit poverty. For this purpose, the attention of development policymakers has been focused on improving indicators related to the types of poverty. One of the most important indicators is human poverty. Various institutions have the power of influence; one of these capacities is the mass media, especially television. This study was conducted to explain the factors affecting the use of Iran's TV programs to prevent human poverty. The research method used is an exploratory mix using a typology strategy. The statistical population of this study is composed of experts in the field of development communication. In the qualitative part, the statistical sample was selected 13 people using theoretical sampling method and in quantitative part 385 people using random sampling. The tool of collecting data in the first part was semi-structured individual interview and in the second part, a researcher-made questionnaire. Necessary indices were used to assess the validity and reliability of measuring instruments. Data analysis was performed on the basis of qualitative and quantitative results and structural equation modeling using Smart PLS software. The results showed that environmental, human, television mass media, programming, audience characteristics and individual empowerment can predict human poverty variable. Given the value obtained for the overall fit index of model 0.79, appropriate fit of the overall model is confirmed. Manuscript profile

        Entertainment, as an inevitable necessity of Iranian society, has been favored by the audience more and more every day, while uncertainties, ambiguities and multiplicity in television entertainment politics have caused the quality of entertainment to not have a coherent approach. The widening of different dimensions and sectors of the entertainment industry, the serious competition of satellite networks, social networks, games, and smart phones with national television has led to the position of national television in giving people's lifestyles and shaping the sector. A significant amount of social entertainment and filling the free time of the citizens in the audience's entertainment portfolio will face a challenge. Therefore, trying to understand these trends, components and respond to the needs of "politicization in improving the entertainment quality of I.R.B. TV programs and providing appropriate policies" from the perspective of experts and program makers is the goal of the article.From the results of what was extracted by thematic analysis method in interviews with 15 experts, national media managers and television program producers; It is said that the stubborn and late acceptance of changes in entertainment policy imposes high political, economic and social costs on the media and causes the loss of new markets in the age of new media.

        The present research is an attempt to study the effects of television advertisements, commissioned by Tehran Province Waterand Sewage Co. on encouraging the citizens of Tehran to economize on the consumption of drinking water. Furthermore, theeffects of television advertisements on promoting citizen knowledge of drinking water shortages in Tehran, the effects of howthis knowledge would influence their attitude towards the optimization of water consumption, and the effects of citizenattitude towards their reactions in dealing with water shortages have been studied in an integrated form based on Fishbein &Ajzen contentment pattern, and Knowledge – Attitude – Practice (KAP) communication pattern.This research is a survey conducted through the use of questionnaires, and the 385 samples were chosen through a clustermethod from the six districts of Tehran Province Water and Sewage Co. The data produced by this research indicates that thecitizens of Tehran share a positive view of television advertisements, and the promotion of their knowledge has changed theirattitude into showing a more convenient behavior with regards to the drinking water supplies of the city of Tehran.This research indicates that despite the positive attitude of the research samples toward television advertisements, theprincipal hypothesis based on the direct relationship between television advertisements and the level of economization ondrinking water is not significant. The relationship between television advertisements and the level of citizen knowledgeregarding shortages of drinking water is not significant either. Despite the existing correlation between the variables ofknowledge, attitude, and behavior with the level of economization of water by the samples, these variables do not seem to beeffected by television advertisements. Besides the aforementioned hypotheses, the relationship between some otherindependent variables and economization of water were studied and significant differences regarding the economization ofwater, were only seen among the six districts of Tehran Province Water and Sewage Co. The data produced by this researchsupports Fishbein & Ajzen theory and KAP communication pattern. The confirmation of the analytic pattern of the researchmeans that the knowledge of individuals could influence their attitude, and the attitude of the individuals could in turn resultin a concordant change of behavior.

        The present study compares the role of three different types of media: TV, newspapers and social media in the Iranian presidential election (May, 2017) in Iran. For this purpose, in the first place the rate of various media usage for gaining information on electoral candidates has been considered, and then the effect of each media on the formation of voter's selection criteria has been examined. The research methodology was to send an online questionnaire to a broad number of students from Sharif University of Technology (SUT) and University of Tehran (UT) who participated in the 12th presidential election. A number of these individuals (213 students) were randomly selected to participate in this research. The analysis of the findings suggests that participants have greatly followed electoral television programs besides social networking contents. Also, social networks have had a greater impact on the participants' political awareness and they were the main sources of information for people about the presidential election candidates. Accordingly, with increasing levels of education, individuals tend to use interactive and knowledge-based media. But there is no meaningful relationship between the type of media and voter's choice criteria. Manuscript profile

        Background and Objective: Modern surveillance systems based on CCTV cameras is an essential element for protecting the environment and social security. Camera network optimization and designing its architecture are among the issues of camera network studies. The purpose of this paper is to develop a geospatial solution to find configurations for CCTV cameras in such a way that creates the maximum possible visual coverage in an urban area. Methods: In general, this research is performed in two steps. In the first step, the algorithm is used to locate cameras in two-dimensional space, and the resulting output is analyzed in the second step in a three-dimensional space and visually. The first step was performed using ArcGIS software and Python programming language, and the S-ROPE algorithm was used as a high-precision method for 2D camera deployment. After the modifications were made at the viewing and non-binary regions of the region, the location of the cameras was determined. In the second stage, the three-dimensional model of City Engine software was used to validate the output obtained using the S-ROPE algorithm. The evaluation of the applied method was performed on an urban study area. Findings: With the S-ROPE algorithm, an automated location determination for cameras was taken so that the area of 1798.28 m² was covered by a total area of 1953.98 m² of study area, i.e. 92%. After a three-dimensional review, only two cameras were added to the total of cameras to cover 100%. Discussion and Conclusion: With the proposed method, the number of cameras used makes significant savings, and the most possible coverage is achieved. The only challenge is the process time for large areas, which, due to the non-urgent nature of the problem, does not create a dent in the proposed method.   Manuscript profile
